Paper & Palette

Week 3 already?! 👀
Time flies when we have classes six days a week! 😆 We’ve been busy exploring a variety of art mediums, from pastels and clay to alcohol markers, while learning about their unique properties and creative possibilities. 🎨✨

We’re delighted to announce we have partnered with Paper & Palette for our upcoming Festival of Art Exhibition, with Rachel Law to be our guest judge.

Paper & Palette is a creative studio in Cockburn Central where young artists are encouraged to fully immerse themselves in the joy of creating. We embrace process art, focusing on exploration, problem-solving, and persistence, helping students build confidence, think creatively, and develop their own unique artistic voice.

Festival of Art celebrates creativity across our local community, showcasing young artists aged 5-18yrs in our in-centre exhibition from 4 – 21 June, with amazing prizes up for grabs.

Our Comic/Manga Club students will have the opportunity to showcase their work as stallholders, sharing their original characters, stories and creations with the public. 🖊️

This is more than just an art experience! It is the perfect opportunity for young artists to:
✨ Build confidence
✨ Experience a real creative event environment
✨ Share their ideas with a wider audience
✨ Feel proud of their artistic journey

Watching students take this step from creating to presenting their work publicly is always so incredibly rewarding! 💛

🤔Not sure which class is right for your child? 💭
At our studio, we understand that every child develops at their own pace, which is why our classes are thoughtfully structured into three levels to best support their growth.

🌱 Foundations (5+)
🌿 Developing (8+)
🌳 Advanced (10+)

Our goal is to create a space where every child feels supported, challenged, and inspired to grow. 🌟
