Visible Mending Cafe with Anthea Renshaw
Every other Saturday. Next session is on Saturday 5 April | 10 - 12pm | £9
Visible mending takes traditional techniques such as patching, darning and sashiko to repair clothing in an intentionally visible and creative way. With these techniques we can have another way to express ourselves creatively. The ability to express ourselves gives us agency. With agency we can feel in control to make positive choices.
Come and join our growing community of Visible Menders, stitching new life into loved clothes. With sustainability at its core, this group focusses on slowing down, working together, and using creativity as a means of change for the better.
All materials can be provided. Beginners and experienced stitchers welcome. Price includes tea and cake.

Create and Connect ~ A Mixed Media Drawing Workshop for Spring with Delny Fitrzyk
Sunday 11 May | 1 - 4:30pm | £25
Drawing is a wonderful way to connect to the present moment and relax but often we don’t know where to start or can fear making the first mark. Mixed media (combining and experimenting with materials) is a great way into drawing, helping to unleash creativity. It is playful and intuitive – the emphasis being on exploring processes and materials.
During this workshop we will look to nature for our inspiration, specifically Spring. We will explore the form, textures and colours of natural forms such as spring flowers, blossom, bulbs, seeds, pods and buds. We will record what we observe in a variety of ways using combinations of materials such as ink and bleach, wax and ink, charcoal, graphite, fine liners and much more. We will start with some informal drawing exercises, followed by some demonstrations of techniques, then you will be free to explore the materials at your own pace creating your own Spring inspired mixed media drawing.
You will be guided through the creative process by Delny Fitrzyk – a Shropshire based, mixed media textile artist and experienced art teacher.
All materials will be provided so there is no need to bring anything unless you want to. No artistic experience or creative ability needed – just a willingness to have a go!
Tea, coffee and refreshments provided.

Gong Bath and Sacred Sound Journey with Tom Stacey
Saturday 31 May & 28 June | 6 - 7:15pm | £20
Gong Baths are a form of inactive meditation, where you "bathe" in the vibrations of the sound. The sound and vibration of the gongs works as a tool to balance the physical body, mind, emotions and energetic body. Known as the sound of total resonance, the sound of the gong gives the body a sonic massage helping to stimulate circulation, activate the parasympathetic nervous system and encourage a meditative state.
Tom will use symphonic and wind gongs plus Himalayan singing bowls to create a transformational space for deep release.
Bring a blanket to stay warm and cosy and a yoga mat or other comfortable mat to lie down on.

Following this creative and informative session we will pause for a relaxing hot drink before moving through a Yin Yoga practice guided by Jenna. Yin Yoga can be an incredibly calming and meditative experience, which many people find aids restful sleep. We will move through postures known specifically for their sleep improving qualities - simple shapes that you can then incorporate into your own bedtime routine at home if you choose.
Booking essential.
