Two Day School Holiday Art Camp

Ages 7 to 15 | 10AM to 3PM

September 30th & October 1st (Tuesday & Wednesday)

Two Day Art Camp

Your child is invited to two content-packed, yet relaxed and mindful school holidays workshop days, at the beautiful Tamworth Community Centre. Drop the kids off for five hours each day, and they will have plenty of opportunity to learn, play and improve their skills with dedicated, experienced artistic educators; a wide array of high quality artistic resources and materials; access to fresh air and exercise in a grassy courtyard, and opportunities to socialise.


Six Art Classes In Two Days

Kids will have the option to attend 6 different workshops from professional artists over the two days:

Giant Diorama with Logan Hughes

Drawing Found Nature with Sophie Honess

Outdoor Acrylic Painting with Danny Stanley

Pom Poms with Ava Clay

Pastel Painting with Sophie Honess

Creature Sculpture with Danny Stanley

* We understand that not every class is for every kid, and so kids also have the option to...

Choose Your Own Adventure

Use the schools resources, such as figures, books and materials, to make a masterpiece your own way, while enjoying the company of other little artists and guidance of the teaching artists. 

End of the day

The final portion of the day will be used to finish off artworks, tidy up and get ready to show off what was made to parents and carers.

Exercise Breaks & Games

We understand kids can only concentrate for so long at a time - so, every hour, we give them the chance to completely forget what they're doing, and run and play outside for twenty minutes or so. When they return, they have the option to continue what they were doing, or focus on new skills. This combination of variety, choice and rest allows kids' minds to stay fresh and engaged over long periods of time. 

The Community Centre has a large grassy courtyard, with shady trees, where the kids can play with provided bats, balls, soccer goals, skipping ropes, etc, or just enjoy a snack under the shade of the trees. We will also occasionally run exercise and drama games throughout the breaks.

Food

Light food provided, such as sliced fruit and bottled water.
