About this Event
Our Studio Ghibli painting makes a return for the first time in 2026. Join us in Northern Monk's Cellar bar and learn how to draw & paint your favourite Studio Ghibli schenes with Floating Art.
To help you get started, we will teach you some basic drawing and watercolour techniques including colour mixing as well as line drawing and guide you through your painting session throughout. To help get you started, the session will start with a demonstration from our teacher afterwhich you will complete your own painting. All experience levels are welcome, our teacher will adjust her advice according to your experience.
We will bring along a wide selection of Studio Ghibli references for you to choose from but for sure, if you have a particular favourite, you're welcome to bring along your own reference. In our workshops you choose what you want to paint.
This painting class is suitable for beginners as well as those with a little more artistic experience, so don't worry if it's your first time. Our vastly experienced teacher and local practicing artist Ula will be on hand to provide guidance and answer any questions you may have as you get busy creating your work.
At the end of your art class, you'll get the chance to stand back and admire your result or sharing your experiences with the group. You'll head home with your completed piece and a new skill that's perfect to practice whenever you're looking to clear your head.
This workshop is located at Northern Monk Refectory Manchester within their cellar bar. Dur to the age of the building, it isnt an accessible space and must be accessed via a stair case. Northern Monk now sells hot drinks as well as the alchohol that they're famous for. You can purchase food & drink to consume before, during and after the workshop.
*Towards the end of the workshop there will be an opportunity for you to get your photo taken. We will use these photos for social media and promotional use. Please let us know if you're not comfortable with this.
