Who We Are

Xanh is a creative studio that brings process art and nature together to nurture children's creativity and core development.

Why Process Art? Creativity happens when we explore, improvise, and follow our instincts. And these are the core of process art. It focuses on the artistic journey rather than the final product.

Why Nature? Nature is a magical space that fosters freedom, and boundless imagination. That’s why most of our classes take place outdoors in parks, where we use natural and everyday materials to show children that creativity can happen anywhere, anytime.

Our program serves children aged 1 to 10, with sessions held both outdoors in parks and indoors at our studio.
