Our aim is to bring colour, fun and creativity into everyone's life!
Faire & Co burst onto Perth's creative scene in 2016 when our fearless founder Fay Valli started screen-printing tees to support Children's Leukaemia Research after her friend's little one was diagnosed at just 3 years old.
What began as a simple space to showcase these flying-off-the-shelves tees quickly evolved when Fay started entertaining her toddler and baby with art activities in-studio. Before we knew it, curious customers were begging to join these impromptu creative sessions! The lightbulb moment? Hearing so many adults confess they "couldn't draw a straight line" or weren't "artsy enough" – what a load of rubbish!
Today, our Kalamunda and North Perth studios have flipped the script, championing the joy of creating over perfect end results. Our growing team of fun-loving creatives knows that simply making art can be transformative, which is why our classes welcome everyone from timid beginners to experimental explorers.
Pop in and discover why process-based art classes are Perth's best-kept secret for unleashing creativity at any age!
"Our mission is to unlock the creativity hiding inside us all and not allowing doubt, pressure, or negativity hold us back from enjoying the process and, most of the time, loving the end result". - Fay Valli
What's in a Name?
So, we get asked this all the time, why Faire & Co. Well ... Fay's name means "fairy", so when she was looking for business names that meant to make and play, she found a French word, "faire" which translated to do, make, work, take and play - that name was a perfect match and because it could be read as "fair" or "fairy", it was spot on.
Why Process Art?
Process Art nurtures social and emotional health, reinforcing such skills as relaxation, focus, self-esteem and emotional sharing. It helps to build such cognitive skills as comparison, prediction, planning and problem-solving
Why Families Keep Coming Back!
Spoiler alert: it's not just for the craft.
“This is the first place my child felt safe enough to fully express themselves.”
“My Tuesday night paint session is better than therapy (and comes with bubbles!).”
“There’s magic in the mess — and my kids leave glowing every time.”
We hear this daily, and we never take it for granted. Creativity isn’t just something we teach — it’s something we live and breathe.
