CreativeNess Beirut

Art therapy

""CreativeNess" is an art studio in Beirut where you take art classes! I went there to learn sculpting with my friend and this is just the beginning!"

Ever wanted to try art therapy? This is your place. CreativeNess is located in the heart of Badaro, it’s the perfect space to unleash your creativity and express yourself.

Personally I had wanted to try sculpting for a while, so when my friend found out about this place she rushed to book us 2 seats at their sculpting class, and let me tell you the experience was amazing and so much fun. They play calm, fun music in the background, plus you can even enjoy a cup of wine while finishing up your creation.

They’re super friendly and welcoming and have different schedules for different types of classes - not only sculpting but also painting, quilling, crocheting and much more. You don’t need to be an artist, you can be a beginner who’s interested in art therapy, just be as creative and expressive as you want to be. They own a small concept store as well, where they sell all of their personal creations and souvenirs.

Check out their schedules and book an activity, get into the creative mood, and enjoy your session of destressing and art therapy. Personally, I can’t wait to go back and try more of their classes!

Crypt Museum

Underneath a cathedral

An exciting part of this museum is that at some point, if you look up, you'll be looking through a glass ceiling that shows the church right above you.
