What your group gets
A welcoming session for everyone: an experienced artist guides every step, and nobody needs painting experience
All materials supplied
A session that fits your group: we adapt the activity to the ages and abilities of the people taking part
Over 500 sessions delivered across New South Wales
Customised activities and sessions: we tailor each session to your programs and to the public you serve
Funding your event
Many community groups fund their events through grants. We provide a clear quotation that you can include in your application. Tell us about your program and we will prepare it for you.
How it works
1. Tell us about your group. Who is taking part, how many people and what you would like to achieve.
2. We shape the session with you.
We agree the activity, the date and what works within your funding.
3. We run the session. We bring the artist and the materials and guide everyone through the program.
4. Everyone takes something home. Participants take home their own artwork, a shared community memory and a new creative skill.
What we provide and what you provide
We provide: an experienced artist, all painting materials and guided sessions. We also help design the program for your group and support you as it unfolds.
You provide: the venue and the participants (your public), plus tables, chairs and access to water. The space should let everyone see and follow the session.
Group size: from 15 guests for ticketed venue events, with no maximum as long as the space lets everyone see and follow.
