We LOVE Artshine! My son has participated in Artshine workshops for years, both at his elementary school and more recently at Churchill Academy. What stands out every time is the pride he feels in what he creates—and how much he looks forward to the next Artshine program. Like many schools, ours doesn’t have a dedicated art teacher or a strong arts program. That’s why Artshine is so important. It brings high-quality, hands-on art experiences directly into schools, making creativity accessible to all students. My son doesn’t just come home with a project—he comes home excited, confident, and eager to show and explain his work. That confidence and sense of accomplishment is real and lasting. Artshine fills a critical gap in arts education. It’s a meaningful, high-impact program that supports creativity, confidence, and student wellbeing—and it shows immediately in the kids. 100% recommend!
Sent my kids to the camp on Thursday at 44 Gaukel st Kitchener . It was a great experience and my kids loved it , well organized and the kids bought back lot of their artwork. A huge thanks to the organizers for conducting free camps for kids to develop interest . Definitely will send them again
The best art box subscription around - and to make it even better, they donate a box to a child in need for every one you purchase. Go support this local social enterprise!!!
my kids said This is the best class for art for ever Teacher is so so so generous I think she knows the kids very well and has sweet heart we really appreciated that
Artshine is awesome! They have a great variety of different and interesting projects for people of all ages and abilities. Each box comes with everything you need to create the project and a little something extra which is always a nice surprise. It's very obvious that a lot of thought, care and passion goes into each Artshine box. We have tried several of their boxes and have loved each one. I find the project instructions are clear and easy to follow by everyone. My family especially loves the video links to the art projects. Artshine has a great philosophy, fantastic products and excellent customer service. A big shout out to Wayne at Artshine for helping me with a minor technical issue recently. He went out of his way to help and I really appreciate it! I received fast, prompt, friendly and very helpful service. They take customer service seriously here and do a great job of it too! It's clear they are very passionate about what they do and they do it so well. The team at Artshine is fantastic and I would highly recommend Artshine for everyone. Artshine is awesome! Update: My kiddo and I have tried out several of artshine's kits and their 12 month subscription box. They have been excellent so far. Each month there is something different and its great to see my kiddo progress and develop his skills and enjoy the various projects each month. Kudos to Artshine!
