FREE 5-week course for adults aged 19 yrs +

Art Time! Look-See-Draw

Lots of people want, or love to, draw but sometimes don't have the confidence or skills. It could be that you already draw and maybe don't take the time or space for it - this course is for you. Using a range of materials, playful approaches, experimentation and structured tasks you will develop ways of looking, seeing and drawing. The course takes place in a light-filled art room and you will be in a small group working with a friendly and supportive tutor. All welcome, from complete beginners onwards, no experience necessary.

Returners are welcome to come back to enjoy the course.

Take time out to do some art and explore, learn or improve your skills.

Art materials provided.
