ART CLUB

  • Holly Schroder

I founded London St Art Club in June 2020 in Auckland, New Zealand. Art Club workshops create an immersive and sensory experience for people, connecting them to their creative side and opening their minds. The workshops are designed so participants are supported through the art-making process, exploring a range of different techniques and styles in each session, and requiring no previous experience. We created the workshops so they are social and fun, collaborating with high-end alcohol brands, private chefs and musicians to create an all-around sensory experience for our members.

Art Club was invited by the Parnell Business Association to run a series of workshops at the historic Holy Trinity Cathedral in Auckland, New Zealand. We worked with a violinist and cellist to create an immersive workshop exploring how we can respond to sound through visual art techniques.
Exhibit A is a unique brand that creates handmade ceramic gin bottles. We collaborated on multiple occasions, holding workshops where people could enjoy their cocktail creations while painting or drawing.
Auckland Art Gallery is New Zealand's largest public Art Gallery. I was invited to host a series of Life drawing workshops for up to 80 people.
SALA is a unique yoga and pilates studio, running all types of workshops to explore the body and mind. We held various workshops over the years, exploring life drawing with models, painting, and sketching techniques with a focus on the meditative aspects of art-making.
Partnered with Veuve Clicquot to plan, produce and run three painting workshops in the lead-up to the 2019 Land Rover NZ Polo Open. Collaborated with DARKHORSE Agency to develop part of the set design of the Veuve Clicquot Marquee. Worked on promotional activities including radio and TV interviews as well as the production of creative marketing content.
