Maloga Art & Culture Workshops
Maloga Art & Culture Workshops offer a 1.5 hour session for each year level.
During this workshop, students will learn about Aboriginal culture through the eyes of Shanai Kellett who is a Qualified Primary School Teacher and Aboriginal Artist.
Students will create their own painting on a canvas, after learning about Aboriginal symbols and culture, several of them unique to the specific Country on which students live. They will also be given the opportunity to share and show their work via a gallery walk, group discussions, along with mini hands-on learning activities.
These workshops are all linked to the Victorian Curriculum and are differentiated between year levels.
*All materials are provided.
If you are interested in having Shanai come to your school, please get in contact via our Contact page.
Creating Lasting Connection
Each workshop is customised for the respective year level and can be tailored toward current Indigenous programs your school may be running.
These workshops provide a unique opportunity for students to connect with each other and to Country through story telling and hands-on learning.

To book a workshop simply visit our Contact page. There, you can provide the necessary details and get in touch with us to schedule your Maloga Art and Culture Painting Workshop. We’ll be happy to assist with booking and answering any questions you may have about the process.
Do we need to supply our own materials for the art classes and do we need to provide a designated space?
No, you don’t need to supply any materials. I provide all the necessary art supplies, including paints, brushes, canvases, and more. All you need is a designated workspace, such as an art room, with access to water, hard floors, and a smart TV or digital whiteboard for a seamless experience. This way, students can focus entirely on the creative process and enjoy the art experience without worrying about materials!
Does our school need to provide a timetable for the Maloga Art and Culture Painting Workshops?
Yes, it is ideal for your school to work within its existing timetable to ensure smooth integration of the workshops. However, some schools may need to adjust their timetables to accommodate multiple workshop sessions throughout the day.
For example, a typical day could consist of three 90-minute sessions, running from 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM:
- Session 1 (Morning): 9:00 AM – 10:40 AM
- Session 2 (Middle): 11:25 AM – 1:05 PM
- Session 3 (Afternoon): 1:45 PM – 3:25 PM
This schedule ensures that there’s enough time between sessions for setup and transition, allowing each group to fully engage in the workshop experience.
