We always strive to accommodate everybody who wants to book onto our themed children’s workshops in the school holidays. This often means scheduling an ‘overflow’ session, to fit them in. As always, the usual sessions over Easter booked up very quickly and were bulging at the seams. We didn’t want to disappoint this group of six young ladies who made a last minute enquiry, so we ran a special session just for them. A couple of the girls had been regular workshop attendees when they were younger (mid 1990’s?) so it was good to catch up with them and their friends.

Every school holiday we spend two days working with local (and not so local) children here at the studio. We’ve been running these highly successful, one and a half hour sessions since 1996, so we’ve seen ten’s of thousand’s of youngsters through the door. Each holiday demands a new theme, so we are kept on our toes thinking of interesting, topical and appealing things to make.

This time the children got to model and paint Faberge inspired eggs on stands. The next workshops take place in the summer half term (2nd and 3rd of June) and include a go on the potter’s wheel.
