Something Good Workshops

#### About the Workshop

Create your own personal shrine in this guided, hands-on workshop. Whether honoring a memory, celebrating a theme, or simply making something beautiful, you'll craft a meaningful assemblage using collage, found objects, and small decorative elements.
You'll be encouraged to bring personal items or imagery to incorporate, but plenty of materials will be provided!

#### Inspiration

Shrines have long been used across cultures as a way to tell stories, hold space for emotions, and mark special moments. In this session, you’ll take inspiration from traditional and contemporary approaches to create something unique and personal.

#### Perfect for

Anyone who enjoys mixed media, storytelling, or creative self-expression. No experience necessary—just come with an open mind and a willingness to play with materials!

Come join us for a cosy evening of arm knitting your very own blanket! No need for needles or experience, just your arms and some chunky yarn. This in-person event is perfect for beginners and crafting enthusiasts alike. Bring your friends along and enjoy a fun and relaxing time creating something warm and beautiful.

We'll be knitting with Woolly Mahoosive's acrylic Mahoosive yarn (which is vegan-friendly), so big you use your arms as needles! 2kgs of yarn is included in the price of the workshop, which should give you a blanket 75 x 125cm.

Three colours will be available to choose from: mustard yellow, lilac or light teal.

Please note: Yarn will be purchased in advance, so we maintain a no refund within 72-hour cancellation policy.

After the success of “Fox with Prickly Pear”, London-based artist Bruna Maria returns with a new beginner-friendly acrylic painting workshop — this time "Orange-crested Cockatoo" featuring a vibrant orange-crested cockatoo with tropical flowers.

Whether you're looking for a relaxing creative activity in London, a fun way to unwind, or a chance to try something new, this guided painting class is a beautiful way to spend a few mindful hours.

In this step-by-step session, Bruna will help you create your own finished painting on an A4 canvas board, using high-quality acrylic paints and techniques you can easily replicate at home. This month’s featured painting is the tropical bird, and each session focuses on a different nature-inspired design, often featuring animals, flowers, or plants.

You’ll receive:
An A4 canvas board
Acrylic paints and all materials provided
A printed step-by-step guide to take home
Tea and coffee included

This animal and botanical art class is a perfect alternative to a paint and sip night, ideal for solo creatives, friends, or anyone seeking a calm and fulfilling creative experience in a friendly, welcoming space.
