About

Discover the colourful heritage of traditional British Canal Art in this relaxed, beginner-friendly workshop with Rosa Lea. You'll be guided step by step through painting a classic Rose swag inspired design and create your own hand-painted piece to take home.

No previous painting experience is needed, and all materials are provided. This is a lovely opportunity to slow down, try something creative and learn more about an endangered British craft in the welcoming surroundings of The Minories in Colchester.

Perfect for complete beginners, curious creatives and anyone who simply fancies doing something a little different.
