Workshops
I have been teaching workshops for over ten years, within the community, at private venues and in my own workspace and studio. I am happy to travel around the region to teach at community groups, arts for wellbeing groups, schools and speciality projects. I can help to write arts proposals for funding applications. Please contact me for information.
This list is an example of the types of settings:
- Studio based – felt making days from beginners to more advanced
- Private tuition – individual or small groups
- Invited tutor for community – 2018 Solway Coastwise project and Mull of Galloway Lighthouse Trust
- Schools – specific projects to fit with curriculum
- Community day care – arts for wellbeing and social inclusion – Alzheimer’s Scotland
- Specialist projects – Kirkudbright Arts and Crafts Trail
- Arts and crafts groups – teaching new skills
- Mental health projects – themed and focussed on wellbeing
- Arts hubs –adults and children’s projects
You can usually book a full or half day workshop at short notice if you are holidaying in the area. My half days (10 -1pm) are £70 per person and a full day is £120 per person (10-4pm), materials and refreshments included, please bring your lunch for full day workshop.
Call me evenings on 07870 705185, send a message via my contact page or contact me through Facebook.
I can accommodate up to 4 students in my own studio at the Mull of Galloway. This can be a scheduled workshop or a private family/friends group.
