About this Event
Step into a soft and playful creative space and welcome the feeling of spring 🌿 In this calming workshop, you’ll use colourful sand to design and create your own delicate flower artwork, inspired by the lightness and freshness of the season.
No experience is needed, this is all about slowing down, enjoying the process, and exploring textures and colours in an intuitive way. The tactile nature of sand art makes it both relaxing and surprisingly satisfying.
All materials are provided, and you’ll take home your finished artwork, beautifully presented in a mount. A gentle, mindful experience, and a little piece of spring to bring home with you 🌸
