Make Do Up and Down

  • Family and kids
  • Workshop

Let’s squeeze, throw and roll in this sensory play painting workshop with artist Youbi Lee. If a ball goes up, will it come down? What if I roll it round and round? Through process art and creative play, work together to make art that’s all about asking more questions and finding less answers.

Please come prepared for paint mess, including a change of clothes. Artplay use quality washable and non-toxic paint however, they cannot guarantee that it won’t stain clothes or irritate sensitive skin.

Age: 2 to 4 years
