We believe everyone has an artist within them.
The Creative Circle was born out of a passion for art and a desire to create a safe, welcoming space in the heart of Blat, Jbeil. Whether you're painting on glass for the first time, decorating a mug or tote bag, or picking up a paintbrush in a weekly class, Marianne and Maya guide you step by step. We are the only studio in Jbeil offering stained glass (vitrail) workshops.
Two ways to create: open workshops where you pick a piece — vitrail, ceramics, glass, tote bags, canvas, punch needle, clay, bead tapestry — and take it home the same day, and weekly painting & drawing classes for kids and adults. Small groups, personal attention, and free coffee and tea, always.
Book a time, choose a piece from the pricelist, and take it home the same day. From $10 per piece, everything included, 1 to 20 people.
