About this Event
Join us for a two hour workshop in Allens Community Garden indoor classroom, where we will learn to make gorgeous and functional candle holders from clay.
We will use a combination of handbuilding techniques to mold, sculpt, join, handle, and decorate our candle holders.
A relaxed and fun Winter workshop.
NOTE: There is an additional optional firing cost of £10 if you would like to keep your piece. This can be paid at the end of the workshop. Work will be collectable from the garden after 1 month.
Directions
Allens Community Garden is situated inside Allen's Gardens park in Stoke Newington. The postcode is N16 5BD. The entrance to the park is on Bethune road, near Manor road, and the garden is on the right when you enter the park through a wooden door, which will be clearly marked. Do make sure you don't go to the Allens Gardens in Shoreditch!

Accessibility
The garden has no steps but is uneven and can be slippery in wet weather. The toilet is accessible by a ramp that has unfortunately broken, so includes a slope upwards and downwards.
The main paths are wheelchair accessible but the spaces between beds can be too narrow at points for a wheelchair to pass.
The site has running water, an indoor heated space and lots of seating.
There is an unfenced pond, so small children need supervision.
The garden is stewarded by primarily neurodivergent people, and we will do our best to accommodate any sensory needs.
We love dogs, but if you want to bring a dog, please let us know in advance and keep them on a lead.
