In the heart of Mont Albert, you'll find 345 Art Creative, an industrial black brick studio adorned with pops of hand-painted pink peonies and green leaves. With large, light-filled workshop spaces, Australian modern artwork on the walls and a cosy coffee shop up front, it’s no surprise people keep coming back for their paint and sip classes.
What started out as an original steel workshop over 100 years ago has transformed into Melbourne’s ultimate destination for igniting a passion for making and supporting local artists. From running regular paint and sip classes to hosting an intimate Makers Market each month, 345 Art Creative is more than an art studio, it’s a welcoming space for all aspiring creatives.

It’s never too late to start something new…
“Paint and sip is a great beginner's experience. We have people of all ages and backgrounds who come in and start to drink a bit, relax and discover more about themselves. Just recently, we had a student who came in to paint Frida Khalo and then left feeling inspired to start painting portraits. It’s amazing to be a part of that!”
We love supporting local…
“When business is down, everybody helps each other. This is why we started our Makers Market to support local artists and appreciate the art of making handmade crafts from scratch.”
Our most-loved class artworks are…
“Picasso Paint your Partner and Byron Bay classes are our two top favourites. Even if you’re not a creative person, you can come in and be surprised at what you make in these beginner classes."
