Join us for our twice monthly Family Art Space. Each session on Saturday mornings we will make art inspired by different artists, themes or creative traditions.
These fun exploratory and experimental sessions are aimed at children between the ages of 7 - 11yrs (school year 3 to year 6).
All materials will be provided.
These are family art workshops and an adult is required to stay with the child throughout the duration of the class.
These sessions will be hosted by Squirrel Ink and Julie Calce on alternate weeks.
Squirrel Ink is an artist who loves to explore everyday magic in her art works.
She studied at Wimbledon College of Arts UAL for her MA in Drawing and is also a qualified Early Years Teacher.

If I cannot make my paid workshop, can I transfer my ticket to another event or get a refund?
We are able to offer a refund or transfer your ticket to a future event if you contact us a minimum of 7 days before the event starts. After this time we cannot offer any refunds or transfers. 48 hours before the event you can contact us to enquire about a waiting list and we will endeavour to transfer your ticket.
Can I arrive early?
To allow ample time for our workshop host to prepare the space and set everything up, we kindly request that you arrive no earlier than 5 minutes before the scheduled start time. This allows us to create a welcoming atmosphere and ensure everything is ready for your arrival.
If you're curious about the space or would like to introduce your children to the workshop environment beforehand, we're more than happy to accommodate your request. Contact us and we can provide you with photos of the space or arrange a visit prior to the workshop. We want to make sure you and your family feel comfortable and excited about the experience!
As a charity we rely on donations and ticket sales to pay our artists and models. We always keep ticket costs to a minimum and when possible offer a limited number of tickets as a ‘pay what you can’ and a donation option if you are able to pay more.
