The workshop is based in the activity room at Charnwood Museum. Please book a ticket for all members of your group, including adults and children. Drop in anytime between 10am and 12pm.

We run a creative family workshop on the last Saturday of the month, normally based in our gallery at Modern Painters, New Decorators. If you’d like to find out about future events sign up to our newsletter here.
