SATURDAY SERIES
The Artspace ‘Saturday Series’ is a programme of weekend workshops for adults running here at Artspace. Each workshop is designed to provide a bespoke, one-off, arts experience that you can enjoy, at your leisure, on a weekend. Whether you would like to paint something to hang on your wall at home, or make a beautiful crafty gift for a friend or family member, these half-day or full day workshops aim to help you to create something unique!
To express your interest in a place or for more information, please contact Dan on 01594 825111 or email dan@artspacecinderford.org
*Concessionary rates are available for those with a disability or who are on means tested benefits.
In order for the Saturday workshops to run we need a minimum of 6 people booked on. If there isn’t enough people enrolled we will cancel the workshop 7 days before the intended start, let you know and issue a refund.

Though not the easiest thing to do, the aim is to have a hands on experience, have fun and end up with one small pot. This will then be glazed and fired on your behalf for collection from Artspace and is included in the price.
This is for adults and beginners with no potting experience, who will have a wheel each.
There are four places available, and will be allocated on
a ‘first come first served’ basis.
Refreshments provided. Lunch not provided.
Bring a towel to wipe hands.
Inspired by Celtic art– bas relief workshop, with Dorota Rapacz
Saturday 22nd November
10:30am – 4:30pm (at Artspace Cinderford)
Cost: £75/ *£55 concessions
including materials
Many of us know the characteristic motives of Celtic decorations. One of them is the triskelion symbol. The three spirals are believed to represent the three worlds – the present, the spirit and the celestial. This and some other examples will be available for viewing and we will make our own tondo – a circular disc, in which we will interpret the patterns.
The workshop is intended for all levels of experience.
We will sculpt it in clay, which will be hollowed later and fired. All materials included.
Bring your own food for the one-hour break.
