Crafty Saturdays @myplace: Recycled Glass Painting Workshop
Join our Crafty Saturdays at myplace!
Every Saturday for the next 6 months we’ll be exploring a range of arts and crafts activities in our new pop-up Creativity Hub. Activities are open to all levels of creative experience and all ages (under 18s with supervision).
These sessions are designed to offer local residents the opportunity to come together to explore their creativity and try new things. Myplace is YOUR place to get creative, meet new people and - above all - have fun!
Sessions will be hosted by Havering Changing and Harold Hill Craft, who will provide friendly and expert guidance throughout each session.
Whilst these sessions are an opportunity to learn, above all they are a chance to play and enjoy the freedom of the creative process - for free!
Workshops will run throughout the day in 1 hour slots - you can drop in or book in advance (via Eventbrite)
