No need to book for the whole term, our sessions are designed to be one off and drop-in. However booking ahead is encouraged as sometimes a class might sell out.
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.
Every class is $20 (plus eventbrite fees) per first child.
Additional siblings are $16.
Sessions suit ages 1–5 years old. (Siblings under 1 are free).

Tuesdays in Altona
In 2024 there will be a regular weekly session in Altona!
This is to help create and build on our community. So many parents have already seen each other multiple times at these toddler and pre-school kids art sessions, and I love seeing you talk to each other. Coming together at the same day each week will help build that connection, if you want it, and also friendship with the kids too.
Bookings for these sessions are directly with Louis Joel, and can all be made with the one link.

Art in the garden
The last Friday of each month there will be an additional session, in Altona.
We’ll be outside, in a fenced off garden which is part of Louis Joel Arts and Community Centre. This will be relaxed, with multiple things happening at the same time for the kids to pick and choose what they would like to do.
Activities will be things like chalk drawing on the ground, window scribbles, painting, practising using scissors to cut up leaves and flowers, stamping on plain butchers paper, walking around or finding a quiet space to sit with a colouring in sheet, and more.
It’s a combination of nature play, sensory play, process art, and playgroup.
| Fri 31 May @ 10am | Garden fun | |
| Fri 28 June @ 10am | Winter |
Pop-ups
I like to mix things up a bit, and support local businesses in Hobsons Bay while I’m doing it. So scattered around I hold extra toddler and pre-school art sessions here and there. Here is what’s coming up:
Williamstown Library
We’ll be back in the library in a couple of weeks, come and join us!
Monday 3rd June @ 10:30am
Little Gecko Cafe
We’ll be outside in the kids outside area of Little Gecko Boutique Cafe in Newport on a semi-regular basis, since I had such great feedback about our previous sessions there.
Friday 14 June + Friday 21 June
I’ll provide the details soon and update with any changes/additional sessions once they are available.
To be one of the first to hear of any new dates and locations, please sign up to our newsletter.
