Theme: Around the World with Art
Get ready for a creative adventure! We're taking an exciting journey Around the World with Art — exploring six unique projects inspired by different cultures and art periods across history.
Each week, students will dive into a new artistic tradition, learning about influential artists, techniques, and the cultural significance behind the works. From the vibrant patterns of Mexican crafts to the delicate beauty of Japanese woodblock prints, students will explore how art reflects history, identity, and creativity.
The programme encourages thoughtful discussion around culture, creativity, and society, helping students connect artistic expression with deeper meaning. Through hands-on activities and guided instruction, young artists will build foundational skills in drawing, painting, mixed media, and more — developing both formal techniques and creative thinking.

May 24th
Textured Tulips
Step into the world of the Dutch Masters - with a tactile twist! Our young artists will create a stunning tulip composition using texture paste, inspired by the rich still-life traditions of 17th-century Dutch painters. The textured petals and leaves are carefully shaped with palette knives, giving a sense of depth and movement that echoes classical botanical paintings.
May 31st
Layered Landscapes
The serene world of traditional Japanese art beckons in this Ukiyo-e inspired painting of a soothing landscape, where participants will use cut and layered paper to represent foreground, middle ground, and background in the iconic style of Edo-period woodblock prints. Final artworks will have a sculptural, layered, 3D diorama effect.
June 7th
The Tree of Life
Creativity meets tradition in a vibrant homage to Mexican culture. This embossed painting project draws direct inspiration from the iconic Tree of Life craft, a beloved symbol in Mexican folk art, often associated with themes of creation, life, and Dia de los Muertos. Our young artists will explore a meaningful tradition through contemporary, hands-on artistry.
