Join us every Monday during term time for inspiring art sessions designed specifically for adults aged 60 and above. Whether you’re picking up a pencil for the first time in decades or looking to develop existing skills, our classes welcome artists at beginner to intermediate levels.

Spaces are limited, so do register your interest or follow us on social media to discover when places are available. You can join at our 10:00am class or 12:30pm class. Each class lasts for 1hour 30 minutes.

Oil Pastels - Experience the vibrant, expressive possibilities of oil pastels. Perfect for those who love rich colours and tactile art-making.
plus much, much more!

What's included?

All session materials and equipment are included, and your own sketchbook is included in cost of the deposit – simply bring your enthusiasm and creativity. Our sessions are designed to be social and enjoyable with plenty of time to chat with fellow artists over tea and biscuits.

No previous experience necessary – just a willingness to learn and have fun! Each week builds naturally on the last, but classes are flexible enough that you won’t feel lost if you miss a session.
