Workshops
My new programme of workshops is run here in my fabulous studio shed in the picturesque village of Lewannick. We are situated just off the A30 approximately five miles south of Launceston, North Cornwall.
I'm currently offering half day monthly workshops open to all over 12 years old.
Unfortunately we don't have disabled access.
I'm also happy to be contacted about bespoke workshops for small groups and on site projects i.e. schools.
All workshops cover an introduction to the basics whenever required.
All materials and equipment are provided, plus drinks and cake/biscuits.
The studio is comfortably insulated and heated (no ordinary shed!!)
The cost is £30 per session (3 hours) or £40 (4 hours) with a £5 discount voucher to be used next time or to hand on to a friend. This is payable in advance by BACS on the understanding that 50% will be refunded if you have to cancel (24 hours notice required). Please bring lunch or pre- order homemade soup for the four hour workshops.
Please contact me via the website or by e mail with any enquiries and bookings shattermosaics@yahoo.com
