Dive into the vibrant world of street art with expert guidance from Cameron Marbus and Paul Zoeller of Western Sydney Murals. These workshops offer a hands-on experience where you and your children can explore the exciting techniques of aerosol painting, graffiti markers, and stencils. Each participant will create their own small artwork to take home, making it a memorable and creative family activity.
You'll also have the unique opportunity to contribute to a collaborative mural that will soon brighten up Blacktown CBD, giving your child's creativity a public platform. This is a fantastic way to engage with urban art culture in a safe and supportive environment.
The workshops are designed to be fun and educational, perfect for school-aged children and their parents looking to try something new and artistic during the school holidays.
The workshops run over two days, Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons, from 13:00 to 16:00. They are drop-in sessions, so you can come at any time during these hours. The sessions will cover:
- Aerosol effects and techniques (weather permitting)
- Using graffiti markers and stencils
- Creating public and wild style text
All materials will be provided, and the sessions are suitable for beginners and those with some experience in street art.
The workshops take place at The Leo Kelly Blacktown Arts Centre, located at 78 Flushcombe Road, Blacktown, NSW 2148. The venue is easily accessible by public transport and has parking facilities nearby. It is a welcoming community arts space that supports creative expression for all ages.
Please note that aerosol painting activities depend on weather conditions, so some flexibility may be required. The workshops are free of charge, but spaces may be limited during peak times as they are drop-in.
Children should be accompanied by an adult to ensure safety and to enhance the shared creative experience. Dress in comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little messy.
The workshops are free to attend with no prior booking required. Just turn up during the scheduled times on Tuesday 2026-04-12 and Wednesday 2026-04-13 from 13:00 to 16:00. This makes it an easy and accessible option for families looking for creative activities during the school holidays.
