For creative minds, design students & artists

Age 18-26

​

Somewhere between deadlines, screens, PDFs and endless tabs… many creative people quietly stop making art for themselves.

Studio Nights was created as a place to return to the process.

A calm, atelier-inspired evening studio for university students, designers, illustrators, architects, creative thinkers and anyone who misses the feeling of real materials, real conversation and slow creative practice.

​

Every Thursday night, our Van Gogh Campus transforms into a warm painting studio filled with oil paint, sketchbooks, palettes, easels, music, tea and creative energy. A place where ideas can breathe again. Whether you study at university, work in a creative field, or simply want to reconnect with drawing and painting — these sessions are designed to help you build confidence, strengthen your artistic skills and become part of a creative community.

​

We can also help students with:
• university art and design assignments
• portfolio preparation
• observational drawing tasks
• composition and colour projects
• painting assessments
• creative confidence before exams and critiques

​​

No rigid academic pressure.
No “craft night” atmosphere.
Just thoughtful studio practice guided by professional artists.
