Our programme of Tweens & Teens workshops runs throughout the summer holidays offering older children and young adults the opportunity to try a variety of new arts and crafts. See individual dates for guidance on age suitability.
July 25th - Resin.
Suitable for ages 11+. Children will make a variety of resin pieces such as bookmarks, decorations and jewellery. They can choose from coloured dyes, sparkly bits, dried flowers and more to create some beautiful pieces. Items will need to be left with us to cure fully and will be available to collect a few days later.
July 30th - Embroidered Photos
You will need to send us a photo that will then be printed in black and white on to fabric. Children will then be able to embellish their photo with embroidery for example adding flowers or a hat! This workshop is with Anna from Sew Sydney. Suitable for children who have some experience with hand sewing.

The glass pieces will then be taken away by us and fused and available to collect approx one week later.
