ART CLASSES FOR KIDS


Dive into the creative, connected and highly immersive art workshops designed to nourish students and equip them with self-thinking skills needed to face an ever-changing world.


• To Observe at Eye Level


We accept that students are individuals and as such, can bring pre-formed or biased thoughts into creative classes.


To combat this, we observe different styles of artwork to develop elasticity of thought and broadens perspective. Here, we provide tools to break free from fear and encourages artistic creation without limitations.


• To Doubt at a Deep Level


We are surrounded by technology that automates things for us. We call it convenience but when it comes to strong creative thinking skills, it must allow room for the unconventional. Here, we inspire true innovation and nourish creativity as we accept there could be a range of appropriate responses – not just one.


• To Experience at My Level


As we inspire and nourish the creative outcomes that pour from students; we help each individual’s contribution to be understood and embraced by their school mates and importantly, themselves. Here, support the uniqueness of thought as we celebrate the diverse ways each student has expressed their ideas and shaped an original thought.


Confidence through self-thinking is the goal.
