Connect through art! This workshop is designed not only to develop art skills for a child and perhaps an adult, but also to help build relationships between a child and an important adult in his or her life: a parent; grandparent; auntie or uncle; good friend; other family member; special neighbour; Godparent or even great grandparent! A wonderful opportunity to encourage a love and appreciation of art to a special child in your life and to connect in a positive, happy, nurturing environment,

Each month we will introduce a visual arts idea and activity, provide you with all the materials you need, and create an opportunity for the adult and child to work either together on a project or alongside (with us right there if you need us). Suitable for children (and adults!) of any age. Workshops can be booked as a one off ($45) or a series of 3 ($120).
