Kids Term 3 - 10 weeks
Art Explorers is a weekly after-school art class for curious kids aged 7 and up. Each term we follow a theme together — this term is All About Me — exploring the world around us through drawing, painting, 3D sculpture elements and mixed media.
Classes are hands-on, inclusive, engaging and focused on the making, the experimenting, the individual process. Each session introduces a new technique, artist or idea, building skills and confidence week by week.
Two sessions are run back to back straight after school, and can be booked as a double. Students staying for both sessions bring a snack and enjoy a short reset break between classes — perfect for kids who want to dive a little deeper into the day's making.
Classes are held at Boolaroo Public School Hall, 3pm session best suit students attending this school to join straight from class.

Adult Weekly Classes
Block out some time for yourself and come and create. Creative Block is a series designed to help you slow down, reconnect with your creativity, and build some new skills, try new techniques, and create a collection of works — one session at a time.
Under this term’s overarching theme, Pieces of Us, we are focusing entirely on watercolour techniques to explore the things we love — from favourite places to delicious foods and the things that bring us joy. Over six weeks, you'll dive into building your watercolour skills layer by layer. You don’t need experience, you don’t need skills, you just need to want to create!
We’ll look at layer building for beautiful landscapes, mastering a quick-sketch and document style perfect for a travel journal, and playing with styles that are fun and full of energy. You'll learn all about the nature of watercolours, the frustrations to avoid, and tips and tricks to lean into the creating style that suits you. There are soo many possibilities!
You'll leave with a small collection of works that are entirely your own — made through your eyes, your hand, your process. No prior experience needed. No pressure to be perfect. Just two hours of focused, guided making in good company.

Adult Monthly Night
Join us for our next Monthly Create Night!
Create Night is exactly what it sounds like — an evening to make something with your hands, in good company, without any pressure. Once a month we gather at Braidy's Board Game and Hobby Club for a night of creative fun tied to the term's theme, a drink in hand, and two hours of unhurried creativity.
Create Night is the perfect way to try an Alleyway class for the first time — no commitment, no experience needed, just come along and see what it's all about. Each night is completely standalone so you can dip in whenever works for you.
But we'd love to see you every month. Make Create Night your commitment to yourself — your monthly moment to spark your creativity, switch off from the everyday and make something with your hands. Bring your friends, bring your partner, make it your regular creative catch-up or the date night you actually look forward to. Good company, good vibes, and something beautiful to take home.
This month is all about pure creative freedom as we play with colour! Sink into a relaxing creative reset coming into the weekend as we experiment with layering fluid watercolours and rich acrylics. We’re returning to the simple joy of intuitive brushwork, mixing shade after shade, and rediscovering the thrill of colour discovery. Use your play and experimentation to finish a vibrant work on paper based entirely on your own preferences. Everyone’s final artwork will be completely unique—no samples to copy, no rules, just a great night out and a colourful finished piece you’ll be proud to hang on your wall.
No experience needed. All materials provided. Just show up ready to make.
