Art Planet Creative Workshops

About this place

Art Planet Studio is a multifunctional creative arts and learning space in Kochi that provides drawing, painting, DIY workshops, traditional arts, music, dance, and other hands-on creative activities for children and adults. The studio’s current official website describes it as a creative hub on Seaport-Airport Road, with its listed contact location at Karippassery, North Kalamassery, Kaipadamugal, Cochin, Kerala. Its website also identifies a range of programmes designed for different ages and skill levels, including drawing and painting classes, toddler art exploration, adult and children’s DIY sessions, traditional arts classes, hand lettering, and seasonal art programmes. Art Planet’s workshop catalogue demonstrates the breadth of its practical activities, with sessions covering canvas painting, shoe painting, T-shirt painting, tote-bag painting, mug painting, pot painting, wall-plate decoration, handmade card making, origami, macramé, candle making, resin art, Madhubani art, Lipan art, and other craft-based activities. These programmes provide participants with opportunities to work directly with different materials and techniques rather than focusing exclusively on conventional classroom-based drawing instruction. The studio also offers dedicated art-learning programmes for children, including toddler-focused creative activities and seasonal art classes incorporating drawing, painting, and craft-making. Its official website describes toddler artsploration as an activity designed for young children, while its summer art programme introduces children to drawing, painting, and craft-making under guided instruction. Adults can also participate in dedicated DIY painting sessions and social painting formats such as Sip & Paint group sessions, where participants receive guided instruction while creating an artwork in a social setting. The studio's official Sip & Paint description states that these sessions can be organised for groups, gatherings, team-building activities, and other social occasions. Art Planet's activities extend beyond visual art. Its official information lists Bharatanatyam, hip-hop freestyle, Zumba, keyboard and musical-instrument classes, as well as other recreational and cultural programmes, positioning the venue as a broader community-oriented creative space rather than solely an art school. Traditional and cultural art forms are also represented in its programme catalogue. For example, Art Planet currently lists a Lipan art workshop introducing participants to the techniques and visual elements of the traditional art form, while its broader service catalogue includes traditional arts classes and Madhubani art. The studio has also hosted individual workshops for children and beginners; its archived Fishtales acrylic painting workshop, for example, provided a guided two-hour activity in which children created an underwater scene on canvas while learning basic acrylic techniques. In addition to scheduled classes, Art Planet describes itself as offering a DIY space where visitors can undertake creative projects, along with art-material and stationery sales, framing and printing services, and facilities for celebrations and creative events. Its published information also mentions artist workspace facilities and institutional workshops, including programmes connected with schools and organisations. The studio's location information requires some clarification: although the supplied information identifies the venue as being behind Onampark in Mavelipuram, Thrikkakara, current official Art Planet pages identify Seaport-Airport Road, Karippassery, North Kalamassery, Kaipadamugal as the contact location, while an external listing places the studio behind Onampark, Mavelipuram, Thrikkakara, Vazhakkala. These references may represent different or updated locations, so the current venue should be confirmed directly with Art Planet before visiting. For people searching for art classes, creative workshops, DIY activities, painting sessions, children's art programmes, or cultural classes in Kochi, Art Planet Studio provides a varied environment where traditional art education and informal hands-on experiences are combined. Current workshop schedules, fees, availability, venue arrangements, and registration requirements can change between programmes, so visitors should check the studio's current official information before attending.
