A skateboard deck painted with a rainbow background and a skeleton in a blue cap

A furry white and purple creature half-mask with pointed ears and a felt flower

How it works

The practical bits

Sessions usually run 10am–12pm and 1pm–3pm. Some workshops run longer, check the timetable for more info.

Booking is essential.

Doing both sessions in a day? We supervise through the breaks between sessions for just $11 per child, per day. Pack a lunch, kids stay on site. You don't have to come back to pick them up until the end of the day.

Prices are per session and include all materials. Pottery sessions include firing and glazing.

Ages are listed per workshop and we hold to them. The materials and the ratios are set for that age group.

Never miss the drop

Holiday workshops sell out

We release each holiday program in week 7 of the term before. Newsletter subscribers hear first, which is usually the difference between getting the session you wanted and getting the leftovers.
