Our Story

Nestled in the beautiful coastal city of New Plymouth, Creative Studio has been a haven for artists and craft enthusiasts since our founding. What began as a small community space has blossomed into a vibrant hub where creativity knows no bounds.

We believe that everyone has an artist within them, waiting to be discovered. Our mission is to provide accessible, inspiring, and supportive environments where individuals and families can explore their creative potential. From the delicate art of calligraphy to the bold strokes of painting, from intricate jewelry making to whimsical dream catchers, we celebrate all forms of artistic expression.

Our team of passionate instructors brings years of experience and a genuine love for teaching. They understand that learning art is not just about technique—it's about finding your unique voice, building confidence, and experiencing the joy of creation.
