WHAT DO WE DO DURING THE WORKSHOP? DO WE HAVE TO FOLLOW ALONG?
Our workshops are super informal, this is not a strict class, we have an instructor to guide you along but this is a very basic beginner event for you to experiment and have fun. We reward creativity and encourage everyone to create something different.
I'M GOING TO BE LATE, CAN I STILL COME?
Yes we don't usually start exactly on time. Due to a large volume of people arriving at once it usually starts at least 10 minutes after the time of the event. If you're really late just come in and don't worry!
CAN WE LEAVE OUR PIECES THERE?
We don't have capacity to keep the pieces as our studio is open 7 days a week so everybody has to take their works of art home and proudly display them!
THE EVENT SAYS SOLDOUT, CAN I BRING SOMEBODY ELSE?
Unfortunately not, if an event is sold out it means there are no seats left.
