Book here for group sessions

  • These 6 week workshops are the perfect launchpad for your child's creative journey! They are designed to inspire, educate, and ignite the imaginations of young Rookies aged 5-12.

    Designed to inspire, educate and create. We cater to each group, focusing on what excites them, while encouraging flow state and creative thinking techniques.

    Each term we learn the fundamentals of building space for creative thinking, learning quality hands on techniques, gather inspiration from nature, learn about different sustainable materials and create top quality work inpsired by artists from around the globe.

  • These classes are one of our most popular sessions! We run classes from 9-11am everyday during the school holidays in both Waihi Beach and Hamilton East.

    Drop the kids off, pop to the coffee shop and enjoy some time out while the kids deep dive into our inspiring creative sessions. We use different materials, play with new topics, experiment with ideas, and the kids go home with quality creations all ready for the wall. We pride ourselves on our quality studio time so class sizes are limited. Enrolments open 4 weeks before the holidays.

  • Our group bookings can be held at our studio in Hamilton East, Waihi Beach, Mount Maunganui or we can come to you!

    We have a variety of different group booking options plus you can add on drinks and nibbles, cakes, custom stationary and custom themes or decorations.

  • We host one off one-on-one classes, private group sessions, parent-child classes and fully customised workshops, as well as our private 6 week block workshops. Limited spaces. Get in touch below!

  • We cater each session to you. Art therapy is a way of processing the past, progressing the physical and entering flow state.

  • Our 5yo attends art classes at Ranger and absolutely loves it. Jess has created a chic and fun art studio and her welcoming and engaging nature has our boy asking 'why he can't stay longer,' and 'when he can go back again' at the end of end session. Thank you Jess!

    Hamilton, term classes

  • My daughter has been attending Ranger Studio's after school classes since the start of 2023 at the tender age of 5! She loves Jess. As a parent I love how Jess teaches techniques and gently guides the tamariki to achieve their wee masterpieces but never dictates the form, colour and outcome, and there is no 'this is the right way'. Step aside school classroom artwork where almost every finished product looks the same!

  • Highly recommend. Very professional art skills learned not offered in schools; Ranger is friendly, kind & has a warm approach to teaching.

  • My daughter loved her sessions last term and we were very proud of her frog painting. Jess is great at getting everyone on task while still going with the flow.
