Welcome to the weekender where we flip the script on creativity! Dive into a wave of inspiration off-the-board from art shows and workshops to community jams and masterclasses – it’s about to be a board meeting like no other. Join us in flipping perspectives and catching your stoke!
The workshop’s objective is to be able to introduce a fun, hands on approach to upcycling and creativity!
In this 1 hour workshop that’s open to all ages and skill levels, you will get to paint on old decks (all provided by us!), and bring them home.
There is no need to worry about technical skills as Nicholas teaches you to breathe new life into old things and have fun with different types of paint.
There will be acrylic paints, spray paints as well as different types of paint markers to experiment and play with, turning these old decks into your very own brand new works of art.
Prepare to get paint on you!
About Nicholas Ong
Nicholas Ong (b. 1995) is a Singaporean artist and painter. His practice navigates the juncture between perception and reception through his experiments as an artist.

Cosmetics, Marvel, Pedro, The Singapore Art Museum and works with a variety of artists in different creative fields. In 2019, he participated in an Artist in Residence with the Balai Seni Negara (National Art Gallery Malaysia) and exhibited work during the Inaugural Triennial Singapore Malaysia Bilateral Cultural Showcase during Urbanscapes Malaysia.
