Welcome to our art and craft workshops! This is a wonderful opportunity to create your own unique piece while being surrounded by beautiful art in our beautiful Essex art gallery setting. You’ll have the rare and special chance to work in an inspiring, creative space filled with visual interest. We encourage you to take your time to look around the gallery, absorb the atmosphere, soak in all the artistic details, and allow the exhibition and its surroundings to inspire and inform your creative process as you work on your own piece.
