Looking to make a special gift for a loved one that seems to have it all? Would you love to make a surprise for a friend that you won’t see before Christmas? Then drop on by Santa’s Workshop at the Roselle Fine Arts Academy! We will be offering an open studio to students of all ages. During the selected days and times, artists will be able to have access to all of our supplies as well as step by step instructions on how to make a unique art piece for the holiday season. Wrapping (and framing if applicable) of the gift will be included in the final pricing.
We will also be providing small snacks and beverages in the duration of the open studio. Please detail if your artist has any allergies that should be shared ahead of time on your registration.
NOTE: Base price for attendance is $40 per person, but you can select what day you are interested in attending by clicking the drop down menu and choosing the day that works best for you. Once a day is selected, you can increase the quantity to how many artists will be participating. Multiple days will require multiple orders in your cart.

*Children 6 and under must be accompanied by an adult. While we are leaving the minimum age open-ended, please consider your child’s abilities and attention span for a 2-hour paint class. Children under 5 often do their own thing and finish in record time, so consider bringing some other activity for them to occupy their time while the rest of the painters finish.
Class size: min: 5 max: 18
In this class, students will use a wide variety of mediums, techniques, and styles, while having a chance to spend time with other students with similar interests. This includes drawing and painting mediums such as watercolor, acrylics, gouache, pastels, pen and ink, and charcoal, but also printmaking, collage, and clay to name just a few. The students are given freedom to explore their interests independently, while having guidance available from the instructor. Maybe they’d like to try a new medium, or stay in their comfort zone and just have time to create.
We provide your child a break from electronics and school pressures and give them a safe space to relax, create, explore ideas, meet peers with similar interests, and develop skills, whether they may want to pursue a career in the arts or just need a creative outlet.
NOTE: Sign up two or more students and receive a $10 discount for each additional child after the first registration.
