Group Workshops
I have a wealth of experience working with schools and organisations creating group works such as wall hangings, up-cycled fashions shows, and story sacks, and individual pieces, working with both parents and children. If you run a group and would like to discuss a project, please get in touch. Sessions start from £75 for ½ days (3 hours) to £150 for full days (6 hours).
Maximum learners will differ for each workshop due to equipment, facilities and the learners needs, please contact me for further information and prices.
Here are some workshop examples, if you are looking for something more specific for your group please don't hesitate to call to see if I can help. I am more than happy to tailor courses to your needs.
