The Fun In Art is a toddler & pre-school art playgroup in Inner West Melbourne.

Weekly drop-in sessions for mums (or dads!) who want their little ones to experience the fun in art, without having to clean up afterwards!

The focus is all about teaching kids to love art.

It's a relaxed environment, with no judgements or expectations from the kids.

Lots of materials are provided and set up in an inviting way. This allows each child to gravitate towards what they are interested in, and be creative in any way they choose to.

Come to a single session, every week, or every now and then!

Each session is based on a theme, and structured – however it’s not strict in any way. The kids can happily go off on a different direction or as they please.

Location is from Williamstown Library, Newport Gardens, as well as a few local cafes.

The Fun In Art is run by Tegan Farrugia. She is a local mum in Altona, and loves making wonderful messy art with kids. She created this community because she saw a lot of parents were scared to paint with their kids at home, and wanted to provide a safe space to do it. These sessions not only give little ones a chance to go crazy with paint, but also the ability for parents to not need to clean up afterwards. A win, win!
