School Holiday Kids Art Class Melbourne - Acrylic Painting

Looking for school holiday activities in Melbourne that get kids off screens and into something genuinely creative? Paint With Me's school holiday kids' art class in Northcote is a guided acrylic painting experience on canvas, open to all children aged 5 and up. No experience needed. No supplies to buy. Just show up and paint.Each class is led step by step by a professional artist, so even first-time painters leave with a finished canvas artwork they are genuinely proud of. More experienced young artists will find plenty to work with too. Whether your child is a total beginner or already filling sketchbooks at home, this is an art class for kids that meets them exactly where they are.What makes these classes special:

• Every school holiday program focuses on a different painting subject, which means kids can come back each term and try something new.
• The acrylic painting techniques they learn, including colour mixing, brushwork, and composition, build real artistic skills in a way that feels relaxed, fun, and age-appropriate.
• This is not a craft kit. This is a proper beginner art class for kids, guided by a working artist who loves teaching.

All materials are provided, including canvas, acrylic paints, and brushes. Your child just needs to arrive ready to have a good time.Our studio:Paint With Me is located at 579 High St Northcote, in one of Melbourne's most creative neighbourhoods. The studio is warm, welcoming, and fully set up for a great class experience. Two studio rooms, private bathrooms, and a kitchenette are all on site.
