About Public Art Workshops & Classes
Why I Started This
I built StoryZone as a way to bring people together in Namma Bengaluru for some real, hands-on creative fun. The goal? A place to disconnect from screens and just make stuff. No pressure to be the next Picasso - just show up, create, and chill out with folks who get it.
What to Expect
- No experience needed - most of us are just winging it!
- Come solo, with friends, or even on a date. All kinds of people join in.
- We keep things easygoing. Nobody’s judging your art here.
- There’s always tea, coffee, and a relaxed vibe. Feels more like hanging out than a formal class.
What We Do
Every weekend, we run different public art workshops. You’ll find stuff like:
- Canvas painting, fluid art, and texture painting
- Resin art (from ocean clocks to galaxy themes), hand-built pottery, and traditional lippan mirror work
- Mandala dot art and zentangle for some art therapy workshops
- Tote bag painting, decoupage, miniature art, batik - we keep trying new things
The Real Deal
Things don’t always go to plan. Power cuts, spilled paint - we’ve seen it all. But honestly, those messy moments make for the best memories. It’s about connecting, not perfection.

My Story
Hey, I’m Nisha and StoryZone is basically my second home. Started this place because, yaar, everyone needs a break from screens and some real human connection. Trust me, running this studio is wild – power cuts, crazy rains, but I still love every bit. The best part? Watching folks who say 'I can't even draw' leave with their own artwork and a big grin. Every weekend, new faces, new stories. That’s what keeps me hooked.
