Best Art Classes in Abu Dhabi 

Have you ever wanted to experience different art classes and don’t know where to start? Well, sounds like we know exactly what you are looking for because today we will be providing our experience in participating in the different art classes in Abu Dhabi at Manarat Al Saadiyat art studio. The art studio is located on Al-Saadiyat island.

Overview Of The Art Classes at Manarat Al Saadiyat

The art studio is such a calming place to get creative with the art, the first thing you will notice when entering the art studio is the kid’s art section, which is the place where they host the kid’s art workshop, they even provide all of the art equipment and material needed. What even makes it much more enjoyable is that Manarat Al Saadiyat art studio displays the kids’ art drawings, it shows how creative and beneficial these art classes are!

The ceramic studio is highly engaging, during the pottery class there’s a large display screen, it shows the process of pottery making, which we found highly helpful. The instructors were helping around and checking just in case anyone needed help during the art session. 

One thing that caught my attention there is how large Manarat Al Saadiyat art studio is. I loved the vibes there. During the ceramic art class, music was playing in the background. What I found interesting is, in the art studio they provide educational resources that are related to different art categories such as acrylic painting guides, steps in pottery making, and much more. 

Hand built ceramic is one of the best art classes in Manarat Al Saadiyat

My friend and I decided to go to Manarat Alsaadiyat art studio in AbuDhabi to try one of the art classes they provide. It was hard to choose one since they had a variety of art activities! We booked a two-hours long hand-built ceramics art class for only 100 DHS.

The art studio was massive with many tools, clays, and handmade ceramics sculptures. I looked at others’ artworks, which are in a variety of colors and shapes.

Each piece was unique and had a different personality, just like its owners. 

Some made interesting cups, teapots, accessories holders, small trays, animal figures, and, so much more!

Their interesting pieces made me more exciting to start with mine!

The workshop started with a short lecture. We learned the difference between the tools provided and the different techniques such as pinching, coiling, and slab building. The art workshop instructor was there to answer any questions and help if needed. 

Touching and making different shapes with the clay was calming and fun. I made a floral pens holder, and my friend made an elegant accessory tray. The clay needs almost a day to be dry to turn into ceramic.

This was one of the best art experiences at Manarat Al Saadiyat in Abu Dhabi.

Best painting place in AbuDhabi

If you’re looking for a good place where you can enjoy the day with your family, Manarat al Saadiyat Abu Dhabi is the best place. There are so many activities there, especially in the art studio that I have tried. They offer a lot of good activities that allow everyone to choose what they like to do or try they have the best painting classes in Abu Dhabi, drawing classes, pottery, and ceramics classes. I recommend everyone to try this for adults, kids, and parents. 

What I loved the most in this painting class is that you get to do whatever you want. No one is there to tell you to do this and that. You do everything by yourself from A to Z you choose the colors you take the brushes. They provide you with everything that you need and they give you your own space to be creative the way you are. 

It was such a good experience and something that I would do again with my family or friends. I’ll try other classes that they have. It’s a good way to know what you like or love to do in the art Field.


Attending the art and craft classes at Manarat Al Saadiyat is a must. You can take a look at the Vist Abudhabi website, it includes a general overview of the place. You can view their Instagram account to know their latest art and craft workshops.

Art for kids

Manarat Al Saadiyat also offers attractive packages for kids giving you adequate time to expose your children to art and craft. You take a walk into the art gallery on weekends, scores of kids are being walked around viewing already made art – probably the best way to motivate them to think outside the box, be creative, and view the world from a different perspective while others are deep in art activities for kids. Isn’t that beautiful? That your kid will be allowed to try out some art for kids.

The gallery allows kids to enjoy art by providing them with the space and material to try art drawing, acrylic painting, and some ceramic making. You might be thinking that that must be a difficult task for your kid who may also be exposed to the danger of harmful paints until you meet the highly qualified teachers of art in the gallery.

Kids get enrolled in art drawing classes and get the basics before being left on their own. You can be rest assured of the safety of your kid at Manarat-Alsaadiyat giving you the freedom to work on other activities or visit other places such as the adjacent Zayed-Gandhi Museum. Better still, the Manarat Al Saadiyat allows you to enroll in some art classes too either alongside your kids or separately. This is a great leisure activity for you and your family with some new skills in art and craft.
