resin art workshop
18 July 2026
10:00–12:30pm or 1:00–3:30pm
Perfect for beginners
Create a stunning ocean-inspired resin artwork in this relaxed, guided workshop. You’ll design a unique serving board (approx. 30 × 23cm), along with a matching coaster or trinket dish and a bonus item — all with step-by-step instructions and no experience required. All materials, refreshments and nibbles are included, using a low-odour, biodegradable resin.
Finished pieces are to be collected the following day between 9:00–10:00am. Over 18s only; not recommended for pregnant participants due to resin use.
new workshops coming soon
Our workshops are taking a short break — but fresh sessions are just around the corner.
