Creative Week with Saltmine

We’re working with Saltmine Theatre Company to develop the programme which will include dramatic input to complement our Bible Studies, and evening meetings featuring their superb short sketches. Across the week there will be plenty of opportunities to get involved. We hope to announce shortly the continuation of our Art and Photography workshops, so watch this space, as this is the week to come to get creative!

Why not combine this week with Home Education week (the previous week) for a fortnight packed with loads for all the family to enjoy, while benefiting from our off-peak pricing?

Art workshops

Artist and teacher Lynne Pugh will join us for a week of free watercolour workshops to further encourage your artistic endeavours. Sit on the terrace in the sun and learn a new skill as Lynne guides you through the basics of watercolour. The workshops are for all abilities, whether you are a skilled watercolourist or just curious to try it out.

Photography

Bring along your camera or phone and learn what makes a fantastic photo and how to capture the shot of your dreams with Chez, our professional photographer.
