About

The Art Café is our new unguided painting art session! Bring along old friends, make new connections or ask that special someone out for this fun and relaxed art activity.

In these free-flow painting sessions you will be provided with a blank canvas and all the materials needed to create your personal masterpiece. Aprons and easels are also available to use.

Whether you come by yourself or with friends, there will be no tutor during these sessions so you will be free to let your imagination grow in a relaxed and lively environment.

Basic materials provided. No experience necessary, just enthusiasm! Suitable for ages 16+.
