Mixed Media Workshop for Kids 8-12 Years


Hey parents! Got creative kids aged 8 to 12 years? Bring them along to our Mixed Media workshop where they’ll dive into fun, hands-on art projects using all sorts of materials. It’s a fantastic way for them to explore their imagination and make cool stuff while hanging out with others their age. This is an in-person event, so get ready for some colourful fun!



🎨 What Will Kids Do?

In this hands-on Mixed Media Art Workshop, children will:

  • Experiment with a variety of art materials such as paint, paper, fabric, textures, and found objects
  • Create their own unique artwork by layering, cutting, glueing, and painting
  • Explore different art techniques through guided activities and creative play
  • Work on individual projects while sharing ideas and inspiration with other kids their age
  • Get a little messy and have a lot of fun in a supportive, in-person studio environment

🌈 What Will They Learn?

By the end of the workshop, kids will:

  • Develop creative confidence and express their ideas visually
  • Learn how to combine different materials to create one cohesive artwork
  • Improve fine motor skills, problem-solving, and artistic decision-making
  • Practice patience, focus, and following creative instructions
  • Experience collaboration, self-expression, and pride in making something entirely their own

Perfect for curious, creative kids aged 8–12 who love experimenting, imagining, and making art beyond just drawing or painting!


Please reserve your spot, as we have to prepare for our fantastic day.
