About Our Art Parties

We bring a fully hosted creative art experience to your home or venue. Children are guided step-by-step through a themed art project while we handle all set-up and tidy up.

We offer a range of guided projects including canvas painting, tote bag design, mixed media and themed crafts. You can see more here.

Absolutely! We love themed parties and can design the artwork to match your celebration.

Our art parties are suitable for children aged 4 and above. Activities are tailored to the age group attending.

Younger siblings are welcome to join if the activity is age-appropriate and safe for them to take part. If they do join, they will count as one of the guest spaces. A parent or responsible adult must stay with them to provide support, as our team will be focused on guiding the main group.

We offer Party Kits so you can run the activity yourself at home. Minimum order is 5 kits.
