Hands up if you can't resist a delicious cookie or are looking forward to the next festive feast! If you love food and art, we have just the right course for you! Let's blend the joy of food with the festive spirit, along with colour harmony, contrast, and texture. Pick up your brushes and enjoy this series of lessons—Delicious Art à la Carte!

Specifically designed for young artists aged 8 to 12, this course will guide you through loads of fun and creative art projects, all inspired by holiday treats and festive meals. Whether you love the bright stripes of candy canes or the cosy warmth of a holiday dinner, each session will help you gain new creative skills and bring your artistic imagination to life.

By the end of this module, you'll have created a collection of vibrant, seasonal masterpieces—from gingerbread houses and sparkling baubles to abstract festive feasts—all while gaining confidence in using colour and experimenting with different styles.

Parents are not required to accompany the student. Students enrolled for the term will enjoy full access to the lesson content. Materials are excluded. Please bring your supplies or order a starter pack below. Refills can be purchased from the Studio.

Frequently asked questions
FAQ 1 What happens if I miss a class?
If you feel sick, please stay home and apply a catch-up lesson at a later time. Or, if you feel well enough, please join your session online via our app or this website. Regrettably, we can only provide catch-up lessons within your enrolled term based on availability. Any unused credit cannot be carried over to the following term.
FAQ 2 What's your refund policy in a nutshell?
For the fairness of the other students, for our clever tutors who provide the lessons that you love, the studio cannot offer a refund if you change your mind. Our in-studio workshops are strictly made up of the limited number of students enrolled before the start of each school term and have the appropriate resources allocated to accommodate the optimal learning experience for all students in the course. To ensure the staff and supplies can be maintained for the course, payment for their use cannot be refunded so that the remaining students may continue the learning and development they paid for. In the event of Covid-19 restrictions, workshops will resume online. No refund can be issued if you decide not to participate in online sessions.
FAQ 3 What do I need to bring to class?
If you are joining the workshop in person, just bring your lovely self! Please bring your own art pack for Clever Canvas™, Sketchbook Challenge™ and Super Matisse™ lessons. If you are joining online, great! Ensure your device is fully charged, and check with your tutor beforehand about what supplies you may need to prepare.
FAQ 4 Which class should I join?
Choosing a class that suits your age group would be a great way to start. Your tutor will advise you if moving up or down a level may be more beneficial for your child. Check out the 'Find My Workshop' page for more details.
