Term courses for Kids (aged 5+)
Our courses for kids aged 5 to 12 years are structured for different age groups and stages. Kids learn about artists, art history and art genres while being in a relaxed and nurturing environment.

Enrolments are now open for Term 3 courses, 2024. Running from 29 July -22 September, there are a range 8-week courses on offer.
