Escape the cost-of-living crisis and join us at the library, the most welcoming warm hub in Bedworth!

All materials provided!
To join the course you must be living or working within Warwickshire.

Level of difficulty: beginners
Even if you don’t think you are creative give it a go as we will help you create your own artwork in easy steps.  This course is about learning new skills and switching off from worrying, rather than becoming the next Picasso!

“The techniques are so accessible and are really helpful when I feel stressed.  I also enjoyed the opportunity to meet a group of people with a common interest, and I learnt to just let go and be creative without judgement.  Truly liberating!”
