Workshops at Springbank Pavilion

We have partnered with local arts organisations Chilli Studios, Curious Arts and Gem Arts to host exciting art workshops in Springbank Pavilion, Leazes Park, on the doorstep of major hospital sites. We’d love you to come join us for the workshops, to spend time in nature and try making something creative together. 

You’ll be able to take advantage of free refreshments and meet others who are also trying something new, or if you prefer to make on your own, we can help facilitate this too. All materials for the workshops are provided and they’re all FREE to attend. You don’t need any experience at all, our partners and artists will be there to welcome you with a smile!
