Art Jam provides art workshops, programs, and event activations.
Because we know how much increasing access to these experiences can impact wellbeing in our communities.
We come to you with all materials and experienced facilitators.
Years of experience have taught us the best ways to deliver art workshops to diverse audiences. We are flexible, inclusive and caring.
No skills or experience required. Ever
Our workshops are process based, so you can create something truly meaningful in a supportive environment. No pressure, no stress. All welcome.
Community
We offer a wide range of workshops suitable to all kinds of audiences. We partner with organisations to deliver workshops to those who need them most.
Programs
Programs are the most impactful way to connect communities. We are able to build relationships and create a safe space with continuity that make people feel included and connected.
Events
We have a variety of highly engaging event activations that are easy to book and look great.
Guests feel valued when they are invited to contribute or can take home a unique gift.
Here are some of our most popular workshops, but get in touch if you have something else in mind!
Journal Making
Using a variety of papers, hand bind your own creative journal with thread. Make your journal uniquely yours with stickers, and add prompts to support your journalling for self-care!
Pinch Pottery
Learn the basics of clay hand-building and make your own bowl. We can also create other things like animals, or simple board games. The clay we use can air dry, or take it to a studio to be bisque fired.
Weaving Wall Hangings
Create a small wall hanging using colourful textured yarns in this mindful craft workshop. Alternatively, we can do small woven baskets with rope or raffia.
Marbling on paper
Learn the Japanese method of marbling paper ‘Suminigashi’. This process is fascinating and you can make several pieces of paper to use in other crafts.
Collage
We bring an extensive variety of imagery from all kinds of media. Enjoy the process of cut and pasting to create a unique artwork for your wall.
Drawing from Nature
Focus on observing the beauty of our natural flora. Explore mark making and drawing techniques that remind you to stop and smell the grevilleas.
Drop in creative play
Easy to try activities that are fun for all attendees to your event. We can provide a variety of ‘free-play’ mediums such as watercolours, oil pastels, stamps and more. This can be tailored to suit themed events for example making cards for a calendar event.
Drop in Clay Play is always a popular event activity with all ages. Easy to try, you can take your creations home or leave them on display. The clay we use can air dry, or be fired at a pottery studio.
Mural Boards
Collaborative murals completed at your event by your guests. These make a great keepsake or continued project for your organisation. We have done several different styles of Murals and can design one just for your event. Choose a surface like canvas or wood, and let your guests become public artists!
Screen Printing with Risos
Super easy for anyone to try, your guests can screen print their own tote bag, ready to take home in minutes. We can even bring a stencil of your chosen design
Tie Dyes
Tie dying is quick and easy for participants and guests can dye pre-printed branded items that you supply. The items can be taken home in a sealed bag, ready to rinse after 12 hours.
We can provide programs that cover a selection of the workshops listed above. Suitable for community groups, libraries, youth centres and so much more! Programs allow us to build rapport with our participants, and make a longer lasting impact. You can select your favourite workshops or let us plan the program for you; we love to let participants lead the way and make suggestions too!
