Create. Recharge. Repeat
No skill needed, wonky is welcome. Paint a pottery animal, play with watercolours, or just have a go. Pick your activity, settle in with a drink or a snack, and make something for the joy of it. Nobody is grading your work. Come on your own, bring a friend, or bring the whole group.

How it works
1. Pick what you’d like to try.
Choose a creative activity. Each comes with everything you need and a few tips to get you started. Winging it is encouraged.
If you’ve booked ahead or have a large group booking, we’ll have everything set up on your tables, ready for you. If you’ve chosen pottery painting, all you need to do is pick your animal.
2. Settle in.
Get a hot or cold drink, cake or something savoury and the full cafe menu is available for you. If you are a large group, we can organise a pause in your creative session and bring along your food and drink to suit. We give 10% discount off the usual menu items if you have booked the art session.
3. Take your creation home.
Watercolours and all our paper-based creations can go home with you on the same day. The pottery is glazed and fired for you, and we will let you know that it is ready to collect.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need any art experience?
None at all. We welcome people who’ve never picked up a brush. This is about giving it a go for many, and of course some get competitive with a masterpiece approach. Either works.
Can I come on my own?
Yes, many people do. If you come to our workshop, you may sit next to someone you don’t know and get to socialise a little or if you have just come on a booking or walked in to try out our art kits, you get to sit at y our own table.
What should I bring?
Just yourself. Everything you need is included and you get to sit in an art setting while you work through your art work.
When do I collect my pottery?
We’ll contact you once your piece has been glazed and fired. This will be online if you have completed our online form or by phone if you have left us your contact details. If you have submitted your painted pottery separately when you came as a group, you will be contacted separately.
