ARTSPACE HAS RELOCATED TO BRAND NEW PREMISES

Our popular Artspace has relocated (2 doors down) to a fantastic new space, with lots of natural light and heaps more room for all of our budding artists to express and create in!

Come and make a mess at our space! Creative arts classes for children and young people.

Artspace is a kids arts studio located in Corrimal. We offer creative arts classes for children aged 3-17 years of age during school term. Our classes are fun and inspiring and are tailored to your child's unique abilities. All classes are taught by practising artists and educators and are inspired by the Reggio approach to arts education.

The Artspace Philosophy

We believe that through the visual arts, children become braver and more investigative in their approach and focus while their interpretative skills are developed. The visual arts can boost self confidence and esteem and teach 'cause and effect' and a clearer view as to the way the things around us connect. For more details on the Artspace Philosophy for Early Childhood and Primary Age Arts Education, click below.

Excursions for Playgroups, Early Childhood Centres and Primary Schools

We are also an excursion venue for Preschools, Primary schools, Playgroups and Family Day Care. Bookings can be made between 9.30am and 2.30pm Mondays, Thursdays or Fridays. Maximum group size is 15 (minimum 8 children).
