Fathers Day - Sunday 16th June.

This week our adult workshop was a mixed media extravaganza, using exclusively PEBEO paints and mediums to create abstract artworks full of wonder and vitality! . We only ran short sessions this time, but there is so much more to explore so watch this space for extended workshops. Thank you to @pebeo for supplying such brilliant materials that are also now in stock in the shop! Not forgetting a big thanks to Fiona Burn for demonstrating the versatility of the range.

This mirror is a beautiful new addition to the Arts Café. Of course it's for sale, just PM us for the details. 😍
