The Misson

The Early Years Foundation Stage framework says that children's artistic and creative development supports their imagination, cognition, emotional & intellectual growths and other areas of development in their brains. It is important that children are offered regular opportunities to engage with the arts and reactive activities, enabling them to explore and play with a wide range of media and materials.

Academic research also reveals the importance of creative activities for adults’ sustainable mental-health and personal growths.

Art23 Creative Studio aims to prompt the value of art education for children, young people and adults, unleashing their creativity, encouraging their individuality, and igniting their interests, through our unique and joyful fine-art classes and other creative activities.
