Workshops for Adults

Whilst some classes take a break in July, there is still plenty on offer at Boom.

Claire’s back with brand new Macrame classes - out at the latest Boom studio site in Thornleigh Gardens. More hands-on craft is available back at HQ with Gabriela’s jewellery social and Saturday jewellery workshops.

Les is back with both the weekly abstract Tuesday classes, and the longer monthly Saturday class - learn to let go and have fun with your art!

Oonagh continues with her popular mixed media bookmaking and journalling classes, Heather connects to culture with the Celtic Wheel of the Year inspired crafts, while life drawing provides a session for all abilities, whether relaxation or technical practice.

Although these classes are specifically for over 18s, some of our adult class facilitators may accept younger participants by arrangement, with an additional participating guardian, subject to availability and the suitability of the activity. Please get in touch with the facilitator to enquire.
