Our Make Together sessions are designed for quality time

A chance to step away from screens and busy schedules, and spend a couple of hours creating together. Whether you're a parent, aunt, uncle, grandparent or family friend, these workshops are about shared experience, not perfection.

Collage

Come along for a relaxed, joy-filled session of cut-and-paste creativity!

Make Together: Collage Club is a hands-on workshop where kids and parents can sit side by side, explore colour, texture, and shape – and make something fun, weird, or wonderful to take home.

We’ll bring the magazines, books, coloured papers, stickers, scissors, glue sticks, and oodles of inspiration. You just bring your imagination and a willingness to play.

Cyanotype

Looking for a joyful activity to enjoy with your child this school holiday?

Join us for Make Together: Cyanotype Prints – a playful and creative workshop where kids and grown-ups can learn side by side.Together you'll create striking blue-and-white prints using a historic photographic process and the power of sunlight.

We’ll provide pre-coated cyanotype paper, leaves and flowers, and help you experiment with shapes, textures, and compositions.

Gelli Printing

Looking for a joyful, hands-on way to spend a morning with your child?

Join us for Make Together: Gelli Printing, a playful, low-pressure printmaking session where kids and grown-ups can explore, experiment, and create together.

Using soft rollers, vibrant paints, and a magical gel plate, you’ll discover the joy of gelli printing, a wonderfully tactile process full of surprises.

Together we’ll experiment with colour, texture, and layered mark-making, printing with natural textures, painting directly onto the plate, and building simple shapes and patterns.
