WEEKLY TERM CLASSES

The team at Little Art Big Art are big on sharing art skills to all ages, but we also know it is important to create a happy, fun filled and safe environment.

Our art rule is;

'There are no mistakes in Art,

just changes!'

So at the core of each class is encouraging a fun loving attitude to art where we embrace our motto:

IMAGINE CREATE CELEBRATE

to help enhance each artist's own unique style of creating in a nurturing environment.

WHAT DO WE TEACH?

At Little Art Big Art, we explore a wide variety of visual and fine arts, including handicrafts and textile artworks, for all ages starting from 1 year old. Unlike other art studios, we focus on teaching process art and embracing the interests the children bring to classes.

Our classes offer a diverse range of art processes and techniques inspired by various themes, artists, and styles. Artists can enjoy learning about drawing, painting, printing, sculpture, ceramics, jewellery making, textiles, tie dye, mosaics, alcohol ink, fluid art and much, much more. We provide opportunities to engage in traditional art forms, allowing artists to discover and develop their own creative styles.

WHAT IS PROCESSED ART?

Process art emphasises understanding and learning how to use materials and tools while enjoying the creative journey, rather than focusing on the final product. With qualified teacher and highly skilled artist Rachael Morris leading her team, our classes nurture a love for the "process" of art making, rather than striving for perfection in the artwork. This approach allows artists to practice the process in their own time, fine-tuning their skills and applying them to other aspects of learning.

Art Classes Questions & Answers

Holiday Workshops

We offer online credit card, cash, PayID and direct debit.

Bookings are only secured once payment is made. Unpaid bookings may be offered to those on the waitlists.

Online credit cards will incur a surcharge fee outlined in each workshop description. To avoid credit card fees, choose offline payment (direct debit, PayID or cash) and ensure you make payment to secure your booking.

Direct Debit :

Little Art Big Art PTY LYD

BSB: 063 571

Account: 1044 0703

Reference: Your child's name, date and time.

Once you have made payment, please email your booking confirmation and your payment receipt through so we can mark your booking as paid. We receive many direct debit payments and without a reference and receipt, it can be very difficult to locate your payment.

Pay ID: As we are a business, it is a little different to paying someone with their mobile number. Instead of the mobile number it is our ABN number. So you need to select ABN or ACN option and then type in the following 11 digit number only: 24660623745

Reference: Your child's name, date and time.

Cash:

In the studio, there is a payment slip for you to fill out, sign and have a staff member sign. Please take a photo for your reference.

Cancellations, Refunds & Transfers for Art Classes & Holiday Workshops

If you cancel or miss a class, refunds or credits will not be available. In the event that we cancel, artists will be notified via text message or email and entitled to a full refund or credit.

The following can be applied prior to the session commencing (please get in touch via our contact page):

TINY ARTISTS PROGRAM: Transfer to another participant or alternative day if there are places available. 24 hour or more notification is required. Transfer is to be completed within 3 weeks of the original booking.

TERM BOOKED CLASSES: At the end of the term, an art pack will be allocated. 1 hour or more notification is required.

HOLIDAY WORKSHOPS: Transfer to another participant or alternative day if there are places available. 24 hours or more notification is required.

You are welcome to enrol for a paid 2 consecutive week class trial period.

Why two classes? The first class may be filled with nerves and not knowing anyone or the teacher, so best to give it two classes so you can settle into the space, meet the people and get a better feeling for our class structure. Then, if you then wish to sign up to the term, we can work out the pro rata term fee and go from there.

How do I do this?

- Complete the enrolment form for the class day and group you wish to join (if booked out, you will only be able to join the waitlist)

- At the bottom of the enrolment form, click on the "Select Price Option" drop down link

- Scroll down to select the "Consecutive 2 week trial" price option

- Complete the booking.

If you decided to continue on with your booking past the trial period, you do not need to complete the enrolment again, we will update the booking and issue you an invoice or pay link for the pro rata fee.

For our Tiny Artist program, we have casual booking so trial needed.

You are welcome to join even after the term has started, provided we still have a place in the class you are after.

How to join mid term?

- Contact us via the contact page with the following details

The class day and group you wish to join.
Start date

We will check if any spots are left and work out the pro rata fee and send an email reply. If there is a spot, we will provide the enrolment link for you to process and the payment methods.

Regular routines and faces are key factors in establishing trust with our little ones. Each child adapts differently to a new environment.

From my knowledge as a teacher, a parent myself, and feedback from parents, it generally takes 3-4 weeks for a toodler and our younger primary aged children to settle in.

It is best not to force your younger child to participate. Discuss what will happen, meet and greet the teacher/s and let them know the situation. For our under 5's, sit behind them or with them and be part of the creating process.

For our older students in our drop off programs, please get in touch via email as we Child Health and Safety Guidelines we must adhere to.

PRIMARY SCHOOL - HIGH SCHOOL - KINDER ART WORKSHOPS

All classes are strictly drop-off only due to child safety laws, unless it is stated that ADULTS WELCOME TO JOIN. This means adults are welcome to participate in the workshop too with their child/ren. Adults are charged at student prices. Again, adults can only stay where it is stipulated on the Timetable and all adults need to pay too.

If you need to stay for some reason for a workshop that does not state ADULTS WELCOME TO JOIN, you must get in contact with Rachael to discuss as there are child safety laws we must follow.

UNDER 5 YEARS (TINY ARTISTS)

A parent or guardian MUST accompany any child/ren booked in for our Tiny Artist program. Your child may like to create independently or with you so your active involvement may be required. Enjoy creating side by side!!
