CREATIVE RECREATIONS

The Creative Recreations classes began in 2019 with Painting in the Park ventures, with adult students meeting monthly in the local parks to recreate their own versions of famous works of art.

Since then, Creative Recreations has expanded to running classes for a whole term of 9-weeks, with 75-minute lessons. Classes run on Monday afternoons and Tuesday mid-day at Piara Waters Pavilion.

These classes cater to adults of all ages, and older teens*. The classes are for all capabilities and experiences, including absolute beginners. If you have not picked up a paintbrush for 35 years or more, don't let the kids have all the fun. Jump in and discover the joys and personal growth of artmaking.

*Younger teens from year 8 and down should check the Art Explorers and H0meschool Pad pages for more information for their needs.

"Painting with Papers - Collage Techniques"

This is a somewhat experimental term, where we go on a journey, discovering mark making and even tool making to create interesting papers. Then we will use those papers to make three different eye-catching collages. A fun term that results in some lovely, frameable artworks.
