Top Netherlands Art Classes

Give something you already own a completely new life while learning creative techniques along the way. Instead of making something from scratch, you turn your own clothes or shoes into a personal piece that reflects your style.

Try your hand at recreating Rembrandt’s masterpieces—and enjoy the undivided attention of a private guide—during a painting workshop in Amsterdam. With this hands-on experience, you’ll make your own oil paints before creating a mini masterpiece to take home. Enjoy personalized instruction tailored to your ability, hear facts about the famous artist, and learn the secrets of how to make paints from natural ingredients.

Discover Amsterdam’s photogenic side—and improve your photography skills—on this private walking tour. Meet your guide in the afternoon at a location that works for you, receive a photography tutorial, and then set off to discover the parts of the city that interest you most. As you go, capture the scenery with your camera; later, as darkness descends, put your new night photography skills to the test.

Enjoy an Amsterdam experience with a difference and try something that most tourists never get to experience—perfume-making with the help of a local tutor. Spend hours immersing yourself in the world of perfumery in the comfort of your teacher’s home, with the end result being you taking your own personal scent home with you.

Unlike a standard tour, this private walk blends sightseeing with personal photo tips you can use anywhere. Your workshop facilitator, Simon Elwell is a professional freelance photographer who has a wide portfolio of work and will convey his own personal advice on how to improve your photography regardless of your camera. We will definitely see some of the most beautiful parts of the city but this is not a guided city tour - It's all about photography, so bring a camera and your creative interest.

Skip the awkwardness of asking strangers to take photos of you on a private photo shoot with a professional photographer in Amsterdam. Rather than returning home with sub-standard photographs, you’ll pose at a selection of Amsterdam hotspots handpicked by your photographer guide and get up to 30 edited pictures from your shoot.

You can become an artist with the help of our unique “Paint by Light” system. Simply upload an image you would like to paint, such as a portrait of a loved one, a pet, or a favorite memory, and watch it be transformed into a guided painting experience. It works similarly to paint by numbers, but instead of following printed numbers, you paint over projected light. Your image is simplified into six different color areas and projected directly onto the canvas, making it easy to follow step by step. As you paint each section, the artwork gradually comes to life in your own hands. No previous painting experience is needed, making this experience fun, accessible, and relaxing for beginners as well as creative travelers. Whether you come alone, with friends, or as a couple, Vullow offers a unique and memorable activity in Amsterdam. At the end of the session, you take home your own handmade painting: a souvenir that is far more meaningful than anything bought in a shop.
