Summer Camps

€130

You are invited to play, make art and crafts and so much more here in my studio and garden in July 2024

Camps will run over 4 days and will be primarily OUTDOOR camps. Set on a 2 acre site we have lots of outdoor space for large scale painting and making - think forest camp mixed with art camp. It’s going to be such fun!

My classes are rooted in natural materials and traditional process. We will ‘leave no trace’ as we explore the garden and work ‘plein air’

A large bell tent will be our base camp with a sheltered art shack to work in along with shelters dotted around the garden in case of a shower.

Children can meditate and relax in our willow hut, sketch by the pond or draw under the dappled shade of our small forest.

Suitable for children ages 6- 12

10am - 2pm Tuesdays - Fridays
