School Holidays at Ataris
School holidays, but make them creative.
School holidays at Ataris are all about trying something different, getting a little messy and having a couple of hours to simply create.
Each holiday program brings a new mix of projects, themes and materials to the studio. From painting and watercolour to mixed media, drawing and whatever else we decide to experiment with.
You don’t need to attend our regular Young Artist sessions to join us. You don’t need art experience. You just need to be ready to have a go!
Every holidays looks a little different.

Some workshops are guided projects

Some are inspired by artists or techniques

New workshops are released before the school holidays


Multiple DatesMon, 28 SeptAtaris Art AustraliaA new fave! You might have a plan… but the mystery cards have other ideas! 😂 Create your artwork while surprise prompts, challenges and creative curveballs change things along the way!
Multiple DatesTue, 29 SeptAtaris Art AustraliaAn Ataris classic! Choose your colours, pour, tilt and watch the magic happen as you create a completely one-of-a-kind canvas.
Wed, 07 OctAtaris Art AustraliaDesign it. Paint it. Make it completely yours! Spend three hours transforming your own skate deck into a one-of-a-kind piece of art to take home.
What to expect
Small groups, all materials provided and plenty of guidance along the way. Projects are designed with different ages and abilities in mind, and while we might all begin with the same idea, there’s always room to change colours, add details and make something completely your own.
Creativity over copy-and-paste. Nobody needs to leave Ataris with twelve identical paintings.
Creative Hangouts
Want to bring your own little crew?
Our School Holiday Creative Hangouts are a more relaxed way to create together.
Bring a group of friends, choose your canvas and settle in for two hours of creating whatever you like. I’ll be there with the materials, ideas and guidance when you need it, without a set artwork everyone has to follow.
