Great Experience for all. Children made welcome. Excited by their creations and full of praise for the staff in attendance.
My 3 Grandchildren really enjoyed the half day art class.
They were welcomed at the door by the two teachers and were made welcome immediately. They were called by name which gives children a sense of belonging.

Just finished my third term
Just finished my third term and I so look forward to my Tuesday night art classes. Thea and Charlotte are lovely, supportive and very knowledgeable of all things art. You get to go at your pace and lessons can be guided by your interests and recommendations from Thea and Charlotte. The class is a mix of ages and skills and very relaxed. There’s no pressure and lots of encouragement and supportive advice. Love it

Amazing club
Amazing club! Both my girls, aged 8 and 7, have attended over all the school holidays. They absolutely love the variety of activities, from clay work to painting. Thea is fantastic — she always greets them with a friendly, happy smile every morning. This is the only club my girls ask to go to, and that says it all!

Hi Jemma- thank you so much for your lovely words! It’s been such a joy having your girls with us over the holidays - they bring so much creativity and enthusiasm to every project. It's so wonderful to hear how much they both enjoy the sessions and we can't wait to welcome them back soon ! :)
Great place for kids to have fun with art and develop their potential!
My daughter Alice is 8 and has always been keen on Art, so last year we enrolled her in Art K Earley. Since then, she looks forward to every lesson and is always excited to share her ideas and develop her potential in this nurturing and supportive place.
The children work on a variety of projects and proudly bring their completed artworks home to display.
We absolutely love how Thea and other teachers interacts with students and parents, so I would highly recommend this art school!

Great way to start and progress
The class is a great way to get you started with your artistic journey. You will build new skills, get the opportunity to explore various media while getting support and guidance. Thea and her team are very supportive. The group attending the evening class is very creative and seeing other people artwork and progress is really inspiring. It is the best time of my week, Thea
