ART HELPS ME: SPRING SESSIONS

Art helps me slow down, notice things and gives me somewhere to put feelings I don’t always have words for. It connects me to myself, to other creatures and to the world around me.

These are small, informal workshops for anyone who wants to spend a couple of hours making — with no experience needed and no pressure to produce anything finished or good.

ABOUT THE WORKSHOPS We work with found and foraged materials and things gathered and saved rather than bought. You might draw, paint, make marks, collage, or just sit with something and see what happens. You don’t need to bring any materials – but you can if you like.

Sessions are kept to 10 people and led gently — there are prompts if you want them, and space to follow your own curiosity if you’d rather. The workshops take place in my studio at Old Manor Park Library, a beautiful Grade II listed building in Manor Park that isn’t usually open to the public.

TICKETS Workshops run on a pay-what-you-can basis:

• 🌱 Concession — £5
• 🌿 Standard — £9
• 🌳 Supporter — £15

If none of these work for you, get in touch at jo@misswoodforthetrees.com — no need to explain why.
