Join Ruth Howard in a new “Exploring Watercolour painting” workshop.

In this free weekly workshop, Ruth will help you with guidance on what could be a new and fascinating hobby for you!

You can use paints to create work that you want to share with others i.e. greetings cards, or maybe create a watercolour journal for your own use. Either way, Ruth will help you on a creative path and give you the benefit of over 20 years of teaching beginners to paint.

All materials are supplied - just bring your enthusiasm!

Join us on a Saturday morning for a 6-week hand building pottery class.

Pottery hand building is a wonderful way to create your own unique clay creations using just your hands and some simple tools. In this course, you will learn how to coil, pinch, and slab clay to make a variety of beautiful pottery items.

One of the first techniques you will learn is pinching - pinching clay involves using your fingers to shape and mould the clay into different forms, such as cups or plates. You will then learn coiling, where you roll out long ropes of clay and stack them on top of each other to create shapes like bowls or vases. Slab building involves rolling out flat pieces of clay and then cutting and piecing them together to make larger objects like boxes or trays.

At the end of the course, all participants will be able to choose one of their own pieces to have glazed and fired to take home and keep.

Designed and led by Merissa Hylton, a multidisciplinary artist and educator based in London.
