The Art of Strength

Wednesdays, 4-6pm
11 March-1 April 2026
Cost: $35 for four sessions over four Wednesdays

Join us and Strength Heroes for our The Art of Strength workshop - a dynamic four‑week art experience designed to help young people build confidence, develop their artistic skills, and explore their emerging leadership style. Young people will get to take home their creations at the end of each week. 

Designed for ages 11–18, participants will dive into drawing, painting, mixed‑media techniques, creative decision‑making and personal strengths exploration. Across the program, young people will learn how to express their ideas visually, communicate their creative choices, and build resilience through hands‑on art challenges - all within a fun, inclusive, and supportive environment.

Young people can expect:

• identifying personal strengths through symbolic drawing


• building resilience and managing perfectionism through drawing challenges


• developing creative planning skills using mixed‑media techniques


• practising communication and self‑advocacy through a creative “pitch”


• strengthening reflection and growth mindset through final artwork completion.

This program is a great opportunity for young people who want to strengthen their artistic skills, explore different creative techniques, and build confidence in expressing their ideas through visual art. It’s ideal for those interested in developing their drawing, painting, and mixed‑media abilities while also growing their creative decision‑making and personal style.

Workshops will be located at:

Heathridge Community Centre
Sail Terrace, Heathridge
