Adult Classes

We’re excited to be offering some classes for creative grown ups! We’re planning regular classes run by our own Artivity artists and by visiting arts practitioners, covering a wide range of media and techniques. Our classes are open to all abilities, and all materials are provided (we also have tea/coffee and biscuits!)

Our workshop leaders are experienced arts practitioners who will be on hand to demonstrate and offer guidance- achieving beautiful results is always lovely but our focus is on having fun and enjoying some creativity in a friendly environment.

We’ll be adding more classes soon- we’d love to see you at the studio!

7:00-8:30pm Neurodivergent Adult Craft Group with Bethan Bealby

Join us for an evening of crafty fun alongside other ND adults. I really want to create a safe space for other ND adults as I so often feel out of place at social gatherings because of the masking it can require. I know I’m not the only one so do please join us if you feel this could be right for you. Drop me a message if you have any questions ✨️
