Arts Workshops

We run an exciting programme of Arts Workshops, especially around times of the year when members are often most under pressure to come up with Ideas & Inspiration, particularly summer and Christmas. These Arts Workshops provide access to trained artists, fresh ideas and new skills to enhance arts, crafts and creative play activities with groups of children and young people of all ages. They always include a good range of scrap and shop products.

The Arts Workshops will bring new skills to work with your group and will suit you whether you are:

Workshops are booked by participants on a first come first served basis. We suggest you book well in advance to avoid disappointment as many of the workshops fill up quickly.

Browse our forthcoming events. Perhaps you'll discover something you've always wanted to have a go at but didn't know where to start. So go on book into a workshop and discover yourself!
