About Us
Based in Hong Kong, Artlas Artistry is an art education centre where children explore imagination and grow through the language of art. We combine structured artistic learning with open, creative exploration, helping young minds develop both aesthetic literacy and expressive confidence.
We teach art not just as a skill, but as a way to see, feel, and understand the world. Through thoughtful mentorship, we connect creativity with character, nurturing curiosity and empowering children to grow as imaginative, compassionate human beings.

Teachers
Course Foundation
Our curriculum is anchored in three world-class educational frameworks. We don’t just teach children how to draw—we teach them how to see, feel, and think. Every class is a dialogue between imagination and logic, making creativity a bridge to explore the self and the world.

F.A.Q
What makes Artlas Artistry different from other art centre?
Artlas Artistry uniquely combines three elements: (1) systematic art history curriculum based on Harvard’s Artful Thinking methodology, (2) professional art therapy integration with a registered therapist on staff, and (3) exposure to 100+ materials and techniques across five developmental stages. Unlike traditional studios that focus solely on technique, we emphasize holistic development—teaching children not just how to draw, but how to think, feel, and express themselves through art.
Why is Mandarin-English bilingual instruction important?
Our bilingual approach serves multiple purposes: it provides Mandarin practice for children in international schools, supports language development during critical cognitive years, and introduces art vocabulary in both languages. This prepares children for global art discourse while maintaining cultural connections. Art education becomes a natural vehicle for language acquisition, as children learn to articulate their creative process in two languages.
How does art therapy integrate into your curriculum?
Art therapy elements are woven naturally into every class, not as separate sessions. Our registered art therapist, Ng Yuen Ying, trains all teachers to recognize emotional expression in children’s work and provide appropriate support. We create safe spaces for self-expression, use art materials to explore feelings, and help children process emotions through creation. This therapeutic approach supports emotional regulation, sensory integration, and self-confidence without making children feel like they’re in “therapy.”
