We are back at it 💫


The Drawing Club is a space for anyone who loves to make marks on a page, whether you think you are amazing or terrible, whether you've been at it for years or just starting!

Running every two weeks (hopefully) every meetup will have its own theme or project that you can join in on, or If you just have your own stuff you want to work on in the space thats great too ✨

Come meet some fellow doodlers and have a lovely sunday evening in the Eco-Art shop! 💖

🌊 Ebb & Flow: Connect with the Patterns and Power of Water 🌊

Join marine social scientist and award winning surfer, Easkey Britton, for a day of learning, well-being and connection in response to Dawood's exhibition.

Throughout the day you will learn about the power we gain by connecting to water, how we can restore our relationship with the world’s different bodies of water, and by doing so, restore both the water and ourselves.

Being a water baby, this sounds super appealing & not to be missed!
