OUR WORKSHOPS

Our kids art classes all come with a dose of resilience. That means, kids are taught tips and tricks to build their resilience through art projects. Tips to unleash their strengths to tackle problems and mistakes or bounce forward when things go wrong. However, most importantly our workshops are fun for kids and no art experience is needed.

Coming Soon – We are opening The Maker Space powered by Strength Heroes in early September. This is another space to run our workshops and host other people to run toddler, kids and adult creative wellbeing workshops.

Check out The Maker Space Calendar here.
