Join us for a relaxed day of creative making for 15-25 year olds, led by Emma Graves, where you'll explore techniques including embroidery, collage and printing. Take time to slow down and enjoy making in a contemplative, supportive space which encourages creativity over productivity.

These drop-in workshops are all about enjoying the process rather than creating a finished piece, and no previous experience is required.

Drop-in at any time during the session, but booking is required.

Materials will be provided, or feel free to bring your own!
