Art Food Learn Create
We offer inclusive, food-based art experiences that enable participants to engage with art in a non-verbal and multi-sensory way.
Food-Focused Art Learning Workshops
We offer a range of specialized workshops that utilize food as a creative medium to enhance art-based learning experiences. These workshops are designed for children with developmental disabilities, providing them with an engaging, hands-on way to explore art. Our workshops are tailored to meet the diverse needs of our participants, focusing on:
-
Helping children articulate and explore their emotions through the use of flavors, textures, and colors.
-
Engaging all five senses to create a deep and meaningful connection with art.
-
Simplifying abstract artistic concepts like color, form, and composition into tangible experiences that are accessible and fun.

Custom Curriculum Development
ArtEats understands that every educational institution has unique needs. That’s why we offer custom curriculum development services to schools and organizations looking to integrate innovative, food-based art learning into their programs. Our custom curricula are designed with the following goals in mind:
-
Ensuring that all students, regardless of their abilities, can participate and benefit from the learning activities.
-
Creating activities that are not only educational but also enjoyable and stimulating for students.
-
Adapting our teaching methods and materials to cater to the specific learning needs and goals of your students.
We collaborate closely with your teaching staff to create a curriculum that aligns with your educational objectives while incorporating the multi-sensory and expressive nature of food as an artistic medium.
Family Engagement Sessions
This is a creative and engaging way for families to bond and explore art together. We believe that learning should extend beyond the classroom. Our Family Engagement Sessions are designed to involve parents and caregivers in the creative learning process, providing them with the tools and knowledge to support their child's artistic development at home. These sessions include:
-
Hands-on activities that families can do together, fostering creativity and bonding.
-
Guides and materials that help families continue exploring art through food in their daily lives.
-
Connecting families with similar interests and challenges to build a community of support and shared learning.
These sessions are perfect for families who are looking to engage with their children in a fun and meaningful way, using art and food as the connecting thread.
Community Art Projects
ArtEats is committed to fostering community through collaborative art projects that bring people together. Our Community Art Projects are seasonal events where participants from all walks of life can contribute to a collective work of art. These projects aim to:
-
Highlighting the talents and abilities of children with developmental disabilities.
-
Generating funds to support ongoing programs and initiatives at ArtEats.
-
Encouraging the broader community to get involved and experience the joy of art through food.
Whether it’s a public exhibition or a community-driven initiative, these projects allow participants to express themselves creatively while contributing to a larger cause.
Adult Learning Workshop
For adult learners who are passionate about art and food, ArtEats offers a subscription-based workshop series that delves into more advanced food design concepts. These workshops cater to individuals looking to deepen their understanding of art through the unique lens of culinary design. Whether you’re an art enthusiast, a foodie, or someone interested in exploring new creative outlets, our adult workshops provide a rich and rewarding experience.
All workshops can be tailored for one-on-one sessions.
