KIDS Parties

1.5 hour Clay Party

$60 per person – minimum of 5 people, maximum of 9

Let’s celebrate your kiddo with a fun clay project! Let us know some of your child’s favourite things and we can suggest some exciting projects to choose from, or have a look at the project examples from previous classes!

During a clay party we make our project and then decorate them with colourful underglazes. Cost includes glazing and firing of a single piece. Finished creations will be available for collection approximately 5-6 weeks after the class.

1.5 hour Mixed Media Party

$50 per person – minimum of 5 people, maximum of 9

We’ve got a whole bunch of fun supplies to play with! Choose a project that is medium-specific, or one that lets the kids explore a few. Here’s some of our favourite class themes for birthday parties:

  • collaborative artwork – we prep a large canvas with your child’s name on it, and the kids all work together to make it awesome!
  • fabric painting – paint a pencil case, a bag or bring in some clothing to customise
  • hand-sewing – sew some keychains or mini plushies
  • print-making – learn how to design and transfer a print
  • mixed-media painting – work together through the layers of an artwork (plenty of themes to choose from such as under the sea, landscape, portraiture, characters, etc.)
