Finding a creative outlet can completely change how you unwind after a long week in our bustling city. Whether it’s attending a dance class or enrolling in a music school, being immersed a tailored creative environment is fantastic.

But if you want to help your children (or yourself) develop spatial layout skills or build a fine arts university application portfolio, booking the best art classes in Hong Kong makes all the difference.

Since the local scene offers outstanding spaces to learn traditional sketching and oil painting, deciding on a studio that fits your schedule can feel overwhelming.

So, we explored various options across the city to determine which stood out. Let’s look at the finest spots to help you pick the right studio today!

1. Swiss Art Studio

Website: swissartstudio.com.hk

 Address: Shop 9, G/F,21-31 Begonia Road, Yau Yat Chuen, Kowloon

Contact: (852)2390 9292

Hours: Monday to Sunday: 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM

Since opening its doors in 2005, Swiss Art Studio has delivered exceptional art classes that Hong Kong parents trust for professional Western art education. 

What’s notable about this studio is that it secured an exclusive authorisation from Royal Talens in 2007 to co-develop the Dutch Painting Art Certificate Course, providing children and teenagers with an internationally recognised learning path. 

It’s a very structured approach that’s perfect for building a strong, traditional foundation. 

A close friend of mine actually enrolled her daughter, and she was amazed at how quickly the course transformed her technique. She’s even considerably more confident in her sketches and paintings now.

You’ll also love the teaching team; they’re experienced and flexible, and they offer a great variety of courses so kids can really master everything from acrylics to oil pastels. 

Just keep in mind that the curriculum is strictly focused on Western techniques, so if you’re looking for exposure to traditional Eastern painting styles, you’ll need to look elsewhere.

2. Art Roof Top Club

Website: https://www.artrooftop.com/happyvalleystudio

Address: 1/F, 17 Yik Yam St, THEUNIT, Happy Valley

Contact: +85254314221

Finding a studio that teaches classical European techniques can feel like a massive challenge for ambitious students. 

Luckily, Art Roof Top Club offers outstanding art classes that help students master fundamental principles passed down since the Italian Renaissance. 

The academy has instructors trained by top global schools who guide you through building a custom art portfolio of your finest work. 

They even run a weekly sculpture studio focusing closely on human anatomy, which is highly beneficial for university applicants. This thorough training gives serious students a distinct technical advantage when preparing their creative collections for admissions. 

If you decide to enrol in a class, though, just remember that they no longer accept bank transfers or in-person payments as they now require online payments only.

3. La Maison ďArt

Address: no. 50 Wong Chuk Hang Road, W50, 8 Floor, Room 810 

Contact: (+852) 5740 8084

La Maison d’Art offers personalised instruction tailored to help individuals develop their skills through flexible art classes. 

The studio nurtures your natural creativity through small-class guidance, offering supportive structures for absolute beginners and experienced artists alike. 

You can even choose between private one-on-one sessions or social group workshops, depending on your personal goals. This structural approach ensures that every student gets direct feedback during their session. 

The only catch is the limited availability for weekend slots. Due to the popularity of their private and group workshops, finding a preferred time slot on weekends can be difficult if you don’t book well in advance.

Fantastic service

Amazing experience!

I am very beginner in painting, but I did my first picture 🤩🎨

I had Wine & Paint class, my teacher was Zhenya, she is calm, paying attention to details. Zhenya explained me where I have to start, how to use brush, what colours I can mixed and poured me some wine at the same time. Fantastic service 🔥.

And also this class I can relate to Art-therapy, I left calm with great mood and picture in my bag 🥰.

I absolutely love this studio!   Evgenia is a wonderful art teacher, always has amazing art ideas, I’ve learnt a lot of new techniques through her, and the classes are fun and relaxing.  I always look forward to Saturday mornings when I can zone out and create my own masterpieces.  Would also recommend these classes to any new budding artists out there!!

4. Wild at Art Studio

Address: 1/F 4 Elgin Street, Soho, Central

Contact: +85296846370

Hours: 

Monday, Wednesday: 8:00 AM – 9:00 PM

Tuesday: 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM

Washing away corporate exhaustion after a long week often requires a gentler approach to creativity. 

Wild at Art Studio beautifully connects relaxed workshops with emotional well-being, providing the therapeutic Art Classes Hong Kong professionals need to manage stress. 

The sessions are led entirely by an experienced, registered Art Therapist who ensures everyone feels grounded as they explore their creative voice. 

They even provide all the materials needed, along with unique weekly doodling classes to keep things simple. 

When I dropped in for their weekly afternoon slot, the calm atmosphere combined with a warm cup of herbal tea instantly melted my stress away. 

Just keep in mind that the studio is heavily geared towards emotional healing. This place isn’t for someone seeking rigorous academic training or technical exams.

Highly recommended

Going to a Lunchtime Destress Doodle class with Katie over the past three years has brought me an incredible peace of mind. She invites you to participate in the creativity, showing you lots of options, and lets you work. I didn’t think I was particularly creative but find that I am, thank you Katie. She teaches you techniques and then encourages you to do what makes you happy. And the best advice is to just keep going. You probably will like what you have done when you actually finish the project! I highly recommend her workshops and classes!

Definitely worth a try!

Katie’s classes are a delight. I’m always learning something new, both art techniques and about myself. The community is so welcoming and supportive- and Katie herself is like a big warm hug. Definitely worth a try!

5. Mosaic Art Studio Hong Kong

Website: https://www.mosaicartstudio.hk/

Address: Room 705, World Trade Building, No. 8 Tsun Yip Lane, Kwun Tong

Contact: +852 9151 6968

Hours: Wednesday – Sunday: 11:00 AM – 7:00 PM

Diving into a unique hands-on craft provides a brilliant escape from the usual weekend routines. 

Mosaic Art Studio Hong Kong offers immersive sessions that stand out among the city’s art classes, allowing you to craft traditional Turkish mosaic lamps. They also host Turkish coffee workshops, which adds variety to the experience.

The best part is that you don’t need any prior crafting knowledge to join, as the step-by-step guidance makes the entire process incredibly straightforward. 

Overall, this studio makes for a fantastic social outing with friends or family. 

The main downside is their rigid booking policy, since rescheduling your session within 48 hours incurs a strict handling fee of 150 HKD per person.

On the bright side, their flat studio fee already covers the entire assembly experience.

Relaxing class

Feeling chill and relax with nice music 🎶 during the class, and what’s more, they generous treated a Turkish tea and sweets 🍬 what a complete experience 🥰.

A lovely cozy atmosphere, a great workshop with very patient tutors. They didn’t mind when we were a few minutes late and we’re very accommodating the entire time. The workshop itself was fun and interesting. Would recommend if you love being creative and want to learn about Turkish art!! I would love to visit again!! <3
