Unleash your children’s imagination at our unparalleled Summer Art Camp that offers a myriad of creative avenues for them to explore! 

Designed for young artists, they will be immersed in a variety of activities to nurture their skills and inspire imaginative freedom. Each of the 4 days revolves around a different art form to provide enjoyment of diverse creative expression.  

Your kids can look forward to a vibrant blend of art experiences designed to spark curiosity and confidence.  

In Sand Painting, they will get to explore the soothing textures and flowing movement of sand as they build fine motor skills and sharpen hand-eye coordination. It is an exciting, welcoming voyage into art that encourages kids to play, create and express themselves freely. 

Drama will help the understand different body forms and use the body to tell stories. Learn how picture book stories are structured and create your own stories. 

And with Chinese Ink, painting is more than black and white. It is about using splash-ink techniques to create abstract landscapes that allow ink, watercolours (plant-based pigments) and stone colours (mineral pigments) to flow and blend together, presenting a sense of movement within the stillness of ink painting. 

In Ceramics, they will get hands-on with foundational hand-building techniques, shaping their own pieces and bringing them to life with playful decorating and glazing. 

Never a dull moment for your child in this 4-day retreat of unearthing and broadening their artistic talents.
