Life in Singapore is fast-paced to say the least, so sometimes all we need is a little downtime to get away from it all. It’s a known fact that channeling your inner artist can help you de-stress, so if you’re looking for ways to relax while spending time with your loved ones, check out Sage Artelier, a new art and retail studio at Sin Ming Plaza.
From art jamming sessions to in-depth kids art classes and wreath-making workshops, they have a range of beginner-friendly activities for both children and grownups alike. Here’s a peek at what they offer:
If you’re looking for a unique date idea to impress bae or chill out with your bff, art jamming paired with relaxing background music makes for a promising setting for conversations.
For $35/session, the Art Play and Craft Play workshops at Sage Artelier lets you spend a couple of hours winding down with acrylic paint on canvas. They also have a variety of crafts like paper mache, if you want to get creative with your masterpiece.
You don’t have to worry about not having any art background, as there are staff around to guide you through sketching and painting techniques along the way.
For those who’d like to start painting as a regular hobby, you can opt for the Art Play packages that start from $210 for seven sessions ($30/session, U.P. $35).
Those who are keen to equip their kiddos with both creative techniques and knowledge about art history, look no further. Beyond hands-on arts and crafts sessions, Sage Artelier’s art classes include introducing kids to historical art movements and iconic artists.

For those with children aged 5-7 years old, the ‘Fun’damental module (from $252 for seven sessions) gives them hands-on experiences with different art media like sketching, craft making and acrylic painting. Your child will also get to learn about famous artists like Pablo Picasso and Claude Monet, as well as fundamental concepts like colour theory and proportion.
Children aged 9-12 years old can go for the more intermediate module, ‘Evolve’lution (from $294 for seven sessions). Apart from painting and sketching, they’ve also incorporated digital art in their lessons. It also delves deeper into iconic art movements like expressionism – the method Van Gogh used for his famous Starry Starry Night.
If you’re already humming Christmas tunes and brainstorming what presents to give your loved ones, the seasonal workshops at Sage Artelier can give you a hands-on experience at decorating your home or making personalised, thoughtful gifts.
