About this Event

We are excited to announce that London Makers Market will be running a number of creative workshops on Tuesday evenings from October-December in Battersea. As the days get shorter, there's nothing more satisfying than getting creative with friends and family in a cosy environment. There will also be a mini market at each of these events, showcasing a collection of small business treats, ideal for Christmas gifts and celebrations.


The Workshop:

Harriet is a Sustainable Artist with six years experience working in Events and Marketing. She is passionate about showing the beauty and resilience of nature through her detailed illustrations; aiming to connect people to the earth in order to truly heal and grow.

In this workshop, you will be studying the intricacies of plants and learning how to draw detailed illustrations with Harriet’s guidance. All materials used will be sustainable and eco-friendly, and you will be able to take your drawing home in a mount card frame in a biodegradable 'plastic' wallet.

The workshop will begin with a short visual meditation to get you feeling grounded and connected to nature, followed by some warm up drawing exercises to explore composition, shapes and shading. You will be drawing from the plants around you, progressing from pencil to pen to complete your piece. This workshop aims to get you feeling present and brave enough to intuitively make marks, without erasing your progress. It is open to all levels, all you need is an interest in drawing and nature, for an evening of tranquility.


The Venue:

This session will take place at the gorgeous Duchess Belle pub in Battersea, in their private room upstairs. The pub has a friendly cosy atmosphere and dates back to 1883. Situated in the heart of Battersea, close to Battersea Cats and Dogs Home, and nearby stations - Battersea Power Station and Vauxhall, it is easy to get to.

You will be able to buy food and drink at the pub, and they often have food deals to tempt you. We would advise getting to the venue earlier than the class start time so that you can order refreshments.

Parking is free from 6.30pm if you can find a space in nearby streets behind the pub (Thessaly Road/Stewart's Road/Ascalon Street). Please note that you can only access these streets from Wandsworth Road, not Battersea Park Road.

Duchess Belle, 101 Battersea Park Rd, Nine Elms, London, SW8 4DS.


London Makers Market:

As a platform driven by creativity and community, we are teaming up with lots of workshop hosts to help support them in the lead up to Christmas and bring our network something a little different.

We have been hosting online and physical events since LMM was born in February 2020. These have helped support and connect over 500 small businesses with interested customers and other creatives. We are looking forward to working with House of Vans to host two Christmas Markets this year. It would be great to see you at theses events on 27th November and 4th December.
