We are MAPpies (map-peez)

Our comics

My Art Pencil (MAP) is a big family of people who love art. We call ourselves MAPpies. Every week, we visit our art studio to paint together and share our passion for art with one another. Many interesting things happen along our art journey and so we created our in-house comics named 'The MAPpies'. It is a collection of the little things that happen in our daily lives at and around our art studio. The characters and stories are inspired by real people and their experiences. If you like our illustrations and stories, don't forget to follow our pages and like our strips. To read our strips, click picture below.

Discovering art through live theatre

CNA, 19 April 2026

Amid the pursuit of achievements and childhoods dominated by screen time, one threatre director hopes to engage people's imagination through live theatre.

"(Live theatre) is something to do with switching off our screens, being present in a room and feeling alive with a group of people in front of you telling you a story. There's something about it that deeply engages our imagination. It encourages young people to play, and to use their own imagination to use whatever they have around the house to make their own play. (Watching) a theatre show can spark conversation around how we can engage our imagination to bring good in the world, because without wonder and imagination, we can't imagine a better tomorrow" - Daniel Evans, director of a stage adaptation of an English classic children story.

Children weekly art classes highlights

Fun drawings, serious art skills

Our artworks may appear playful and cartoon-like, but the artistic principles and techniques our students learn are the same foundational skills taught in classes that focus on realistic drawing. The difference lies in how these skills are presented - through subjects and methods that are engaging and age-appropriate for young learners. Click picture to see more of our students' artworks.
