A different kind of creative experience
Little hands can discover big things.

Explore colours, shapes, textures, and techniques through guided, hands-on activities.

Good to know
Curious minds ask.
A few helpful details about the activities, what children discover, and planning an experience.
Ask us a question ↗What will children learn in the Warli + Lippan workshop?
Children explore Warli storytelling through geometric shapes and create a Warli Story Panel. They then discover Lippan-inspired relief patterns, texture, symmetry, and mirrors while making a Mini Lippan Mirror Panel. The experience combines two art activities and two take-home artworks.
What will children do in the Gond + Cheriyal-inspired workshop?
Children explore dots, lines, and patterns inspired by Gond art to create a patterned animal artwork. They then design a character mask inspired by Cheriyal's colourful visual tradition. Both activities encourage observation, imagination, and creative expression.
What will children create in the Clay & Pottery Experience?
Children sculpt a small clay object and use simple hand-building techniques to create a small vessel, such as a pot or bowl. They explore form, texture, and three-dimensional making through hands-on activities.
How long does each workshop last?
Each complete workshop experience lasts approximately 3 hours, with 90 minutes allocated to each of its two activities.
Do children need prior art experience?
No prior art experience is required. The workshops are designed around guided, hands-on exploration. Children are encouraged to experiment and create at their own pace.
Do children get to take their creations home?
Yes. Each workshop is designed around two take-home creations per child. For clay activities, any drying, curing, or firing requirements can be explained once the final arrangements are confirmed.

Our story
More than making art. It's about discovering something new.
At Curious by Hands, every experience begins with curiosity.
A shape becomes a story. A little piece of clay becomes something entirely their own. An unfamiliar art tradition becomes something children can explore with their own hands.
Through Indian folk art, creative techniques, and hands-on making, children discover new possibilities, experiment freely, and create something uniquely theirs.
Discover
Meet the stories, traditions, and ideas behind different art forms.
Experiment
Explore materials, try new techniques, and make creative choices.
Create
Turn imagination into something tangible and personal.
“I discovered something new, learned how to make it, and created something of my own.”
