Hello everyone, take a look at our latest upcoming courses for September and October. Please note that some small charges may apply for arts and crafts courses due to increasing costs of materials.

Fun With Words
20th, 27th September, 4th, 11th, 18th, 25th October
10am—12pm
Cost: £3
This is a new course designed to introduce you to creative writing, combined with a little illustration or collage to enhance our writing. Each week you will be given some ideas or ‘prompts’ to get you started. We will not be worrying about spelling or grammar, it’s just all about getting some words down on the paper and hopefully it will lead to some fun and conversation as we discover more about ourselves and each other.

Autumn Crafts
20th, 27th September, 18th 25th October
10am—12pm
Cost: £3
This is a new course which is run in the same way as our ever-popular Crafternoon courses. You will take inspiration from the season and use it to create and decorate artwork and craft items for your home. Over the 4 weeks, you will explore different crafts including owl logs, twig weaving, and Halloween cupcakes! Each week, you will tackle a new mini project and you will be able to take your artwork home to keep or give away as handmade gifts.

One Stroke Painting
20th, 27th September, 4th, 11th, 18th, 25th October
1.30pm—3.30pm
Cost: £3
As the name suggests, the one stroke painting technique means you can do everything in just one stroke, including shading, highlighting and blending. All you have to do is load different colours on to a flat brush! We will be starting with the basics… learning how to load the brush and doing some simple strokes, improving our hand/eye coordination. Then, as the weeks go on, we will learn how to build on our successes, until we have mastered the techniques and can paint flowers and leaves in one stroke.
