All beginners and advanced artists are welcome and will enjoy our Acrylic and Mixed Media Painting workshops.

Acrylics are among the most versatile painting mediums available and, when combined with mixed media techniques, they open up even more creative possibilities.

In these workshops, artists of all ability levels will be guided through working with acrylic paint, alongside a variety of complementary materials such as collage, texture mediums and more.

You'll learn techniques, tricks and tips unique to both acrylics and mixed media approaches.
