What do kids make in Luciole's art workshops?

Our arts and crafts workshops are about getting hands busy with real materials. Depending on the day and the theme, children work with:

  • Painting: brushes, sponges, fingers, big paper and small canvases.
  • Clay modelling: shaping, rolling and pinching clay by hand into animals, bowls and little figures. This is hand modelling, not wheel pottery.
  • Collage: cutting, tearing, gluing and layering paper, fabric and textures.
  • Recycled materials: boxes, bottle caps and cardboard turned into robots, houses and puppets.
  • Drawing walls: large walls where kids can draw freely, standing up and moving their whole arm.
  • Building and making: blocks, wooden models and small construction challenges.

Every child leaves with what they made. For a wider look at what these sessions feel like, read our guide to kids workshops in Jounieh.

Who leads the art classes, and how big are the groups?

Each workshop is led by trained animators and kept to a small group, so every child gets attention, help with tricky steps and room to try their own ideas. The goal is not a perfect copy of a model: it is a child who explored, chose colours and finished something they are proud of.

Are there seasonal craft workshops?

Yes. Through the year we run seasonal workshops tied to the calendar: Halloween masks, Christmas ornaments, Easter crafts and Mother's Day gifts. They make lovely keepsakes and often end up as family gifts. Follow @luciole.lebanon on Instagram to see what is coming up next.

Can art be the theme of a birthday party?

It can. Every Luciole party includes a themed workshop for each child, and arts and crafts is a favourite: kids paint, model or build together, then take their creation home as a party favour. See the options on our kids birthday parties page.

How do I book, and where do parents wait?
