Get Creative
Jam art at ArtJamming!
Walk in and let your kids' imaginations go wild. Art Jamming pumps creativity, imagination, & colour! No drawing or painting skills are needed. Artjammers at the studio are provided with canvases, acrylic paints on tap and tools to freely express themselves. Children can get messy and creative and make all the mess they want - with no threat of damage to your furniture. Enjoy a cup of coffee while you wait or paint your own masterpiece with them. Artjamming is "paintertainment" for all ages, young and old included!
Alternatively, paint a pot with your kids at a local Clay Cafe. Buy a piece of pottery and get creative, with stamps, stencils and paints included in the price. A day at the Clay Cafe makes an ideal children's outing and birthday party venue. Each child is given the chance to indulge in their own pesonal masterpiece, and each parent is given the golden opportunity to sit back and enjoy, leaving all the mes and fuss to the studio! A garden and playground await the children outside so that when they are finished painting, there is still plenty to explore.
