WHAT IS DECKED OUT?
‘Decked Out’ is a two-hour creative experience for kids ages 8+, where the young ones learn how to conceptualise their idea and then put their unique design on a skateboard using Paint Pens! Less screen time, more play time.
HOW DID IT START?
Decked Out is a creative workshop founded by Australian Artist, Mitch Revs.
Mitch is an extremely talented artist, muralist and illustrator and this concept was born from his love for art, surf & skate culture.
“I had a vision of creating a workshop that would not only see kids being creative, but also have the ability to put trucks and wheels on their skateboard and get active!”

The two-hour workshop includes:
• Artist with a Working With Children’s Check to help and educate on conceptualising an art design using Paint Pens

We have an amazing group of friendly, professional artists here at Pinot & Picasso that will help guide you through your class, each of the artists have their Working With Children’s Check and have been trained to teach these classes. Mitch Revs does not instruct these workshops.

When you leave our workshop, you will have a skate deck with your artwork on it. Either hang it on your wall or, you can then take it to a skateboard shop and have them complete your skateboard with some wheels to make it fully functioning. Then you can practice your kickflips and ollies!
