Creative Birthday Parties

Make memories that last forever with a creative birthday party at the Gallery School of Pottstown. The birthday child and guests will have fun learning a new skill and take home a one-of-a-kind party favor. We will gladly make accommodation for you to bring cake, snacks and beverages. We do require a deposit when you book your party. Please email, call us at 610-326-2506 or stop by the Gallery to book your party.

Choose from any of the following great options. Please let us know if you have an idea we do not have listed, or would like to have a party for younger artists. One of our many talented instructors will be able to customize a party for you. We charge a $50 instructor fee per party and an additional per participant fee. Please see descriptions below for details.

There is a minimum of 5 participants per party, and a maximum of 10. We can accommodate larger parties, but in order for each participant to receive the attention they need, we may require that a second instructor be present. The fee for a second instructor is an additional $50.

We can also accommodate parties and group classes for adults. Plan a birthday party, retirement party, or wedding shower your guests will never forget! A wide variety of projects is available.  Please contact us for more information.
