This session is hosted by Thread and Press CIC and is running as part of the Try Create Pocklington project and funded by Active Towns East Riding. It’s aimed at encouraging and supporting communities and residents to be more physically, mentally and socially active in Pocklington.

This is children's session for children aged 8- 16 years. This is a children's only session, although we would allow a parent/guardian to accompany your child if you felt the circumstances required it. Session run by an experienced and qualified teacher with Enhanced DBS certificate. We are ERMOS registered.

In this session, children will learn how to use acrylic paints effectively. We show young learners how to mix and blend paints and we do it all step-by-step. Great for budding artists looking to improve. They will learn how to:

Mix colours
Blend paints
Create different marks and texture
Look after brushes and equipment
Complete a wonderful painting in a canvas

Images are for illustration purposes and the actual outcome produced may vary.

Why get involved?

This is a great session for children to really develop their art and painting skills. Art and painting is a great hobby for children to learn and pursue. Perfect for beginners or those looking to expand their understanding of paint.

We complete thorough risk assessments for all of our activities.
