FREEDOM STROKES
These sessions give all ages the ability to explore with various creative mediums, great for family bonding or varied age group creativity.
This session will begin with a few fun creative exercises aimed at warming up fingers wrists and imagination, as well as getting the kids ready to experiment with colours, lines and textures but also learning the art of letting go and being creatively free.
From upcycling and junk modelling with recycled materials to finger painting, tape painting and seasonal-themed crafty sessions, each session is child-led.
