Here, there, and everywhere!

Be absorbed in this creative activity as you take over our Space to decorate every surface, including yourself.

We are all artists, so explore through self-expression as our space becomes a palette of colours and materials for you to create, make and play.

The workshops are drop-in; however, we invite you to book a space for your session as spaces are limited.

Our sessions take place on Tue, Wed & Thu, at the following times:

10am - 12 noon

1pm – 3pm

Book one ticket per person, including adults and children.

Online bookings end at 10am on the day, but please call us (0115 948 9750) if you would like to book after 10am.

If you are unable to make it on the day, please cancel your tickets so that others may attend.

If you would like more information, or would like support in completing your booking, please call us on (0115 948 9750) and ask for Lisa Jacques.

FREE. Limited Capacity. Booking is required.
