Hands-On Creative Workshops
A relaxed creative space to slow down, explore new techniques and make something by hand.
Step away from the pace of everyday life and reconnect with your creativity in these relaxed, hands-on workshops. Through gentle guidance and time to explore, participants are invited to experiment with materials, discover new techniques and create something unique to take home.
Each session explores a different artistic practice, combining mindful making with playful discovery in a welcoming and supportive environment. No prior experience is needed — just curiosity and a willingness to create.
Workshops include
Macramé Photo Frame Workshop
Create your own decorative macramé photo frame using cotton yarn and natural materials. Personalise your frame with colours and embellishments such as feathers, fabric, shells and beads. Participants are welcome to bring a photo or postcard to incorporate into their design and create a frame that reflects their own style.
Air-Dry Clay Workshop
Explore the tactile and grounding process of working with clay in this hands-on session. Participants will learn simple techniques such as shaping, carving and texturing while creating a small sculptural piece to take home. Those with previous experience are welcome to explore their own ideas and use the session as a space for free creative expression. Working with clay encourages focus and presence, offering a calming and mindful creative experience.
Mandala Art Workshop
Slow down with a mindful drawing session inspired by mandala patterns. Participants will learn simple techniques for building circular compositions using line, symmetry and colour, creating layered designs that encourage focus and relaxation. This workshop offers a calm and meditative space to explore pattern, creativity and personal expression.
