Artventure

Open to all ages and skill levels. Our art classes are less about the result and more about exploring, playing, and expressing who you are.

For Children

Art can help children develop fine motor skills and creative thinking. These sessions give them a dedicated space to explore new materials, build confidence through making things, and express their ideas visually. It is a productive way for kids to stay engaged while learning how to solve problems and focus on a task.

For Adults

Art provides a necessary break from the stresses of daily life and work. It offers a chance to learn a new skill, improve focus, and meet others with similar interests. For many adults, it is a practical way to rediscover a sense of hobby and spend time doing something hands-on and screen-free.

Teacher Marchelle

I’m Marchelle Anne Pascua and I founded this workshop in 2021. I’ve had the joy of teaching children and adults alike, from first-time beginners to experienced artists and including students with diverse learning and accessibility needs. I teach art not just as a skill, but as a necessary outlet that belongs to everyone.

Teacher Alexia

I’m Alexia Espiritu, a portrait and charcoal artist teaching here since 2025. My specialty since then has grown well beyond where it started. Now, I also do watercolor, mixed media and digital art. I believe the best thing art can do is surprise you and I love helping students find that feeling for themselves.
