Santa’s Magical Christmas Sky

Join us for a magical festive art workshop as we create our very own Santa Claus soaring through the winter sky. Using beautiful soft pastels, children will explore colour, blending and texture to create a dreamy Christmas scene inspired by the artist Marc Chagall. From a starry winter sky to Santa floating high above the chimneys, this is a wonderful opportunity for young artists to get creative, develop their artistic skills and take home a very special piece of Christmas artwork.

This workshop is perfect for children who love to get a little messy and very creative!

In this fun and colourful workshop, children will create a beautiful Christmas tree, decorating it with sparkling baubles, twinkling lights, dove birds and all the festive details that make Christmas magical. They’ll have the chance to experiment with colour, patterns and their own creative ideas to produce a unique, personalised tote bag to take home. A lovely festive keepsake and a practical little piece of Christmas magic!

A Magical Winter Night

Capture the peaceful magic of a chilly winter evening in this atmospheric Christmas art workshop. Children will create a beautiful, sleepy winter landscape, with glowing street lights illuminating a quiet street as a lone figure wanders through the snow beneath their umbrella. We’ll explore light, shadow, colour and atmosphere to bring our winter scene to life, creating a cosy contrast between the crisp, cold surroundings and the warm glow of the street lights. A wonderful opportunity to experiment with artistic techniques and create a beautifully atmospheric piece of winter artwork in acrylic paint on canvas.
