Aliya reviewed: Copper foiled stained glass workshop: June

"Will is a patient, clear, and skilled instructor with a warm disposition. There is a wide range of glass to choose from of all colours and textures, and a selection of templates ranging from simple to more challenging. All equipment needed was provided and well maintained. Will allowed creative freedom with our designs whilst still providing direction and advice where needed. The pace throughout the 3 hour session was determined by participants to an appropriate degree, we were all complete beginners and left with lovely finished pieces and a strong desire to return. I’d highly recommend this course for a thoroughly enjoyable and pressure free introduction to medium. "

Cathy Jenkins reviewed: Willow Obelisks Workshop

"We were very impressed with Dave's clear tuition and enthusiasm for the craft and thought it was an excellent introduction to willow work. We were also delighted with our willow obelisks given that we had no prior experience of willow weaving. Everyone was friendly and plenty of tea was available! We would thoroughly recommend it."

Charmain reviewed: Winter Robin in Pastels - evening

"Throughly enjoyed this workshop of a Robin in pastels. First time at this venue. Easy to find. Ample parking. Welcomed at the venue. Good space for the activity. I was using pastels for the first time. Warm and friendly tutor was excellent and took us through the process step-by-step. Everyone had the opportunity to ask questions and clarify. Tutor gave lots of advice and tips. The workshop was at a good pace allowing for people to catch up when needed. My only suggestion for improvement is to make sure that everybody has a set of the materials needed as we did have to wait whilst we shared some of the materials. I think it is fair to say we were all impressed at the results from our efforts. I highly recommend this class. "
