Workshops & Classes

Hidden Messages in Nature: A Love Parks Creative Workshop

This workshop explores Scarborough’s beautiful South Cliff Gardens through a mix of observation and simple making, as part of Love Parks Week. Participants begin with a short walk, noticing colour, shape, and detail in the surrounding space, before creating paper flowers inspired by what they have seen. The session also introduces the idea that flowers can carry meaning, giving people a way to connect what they make with a feeling or idea. Participants can take inspiration from traditional flowers such as mignonette, stock, lupin, pink, pansy, and alyssum—plants that have long been part of Scarborough’s gardens—or create their own designs using colour and shape to express a feeling, memory, or message. The workshop also draws on European paper flower-making traditions, including Polish decorative styles, where paper is shaped, layered, and structured to create more detailed and expressive forms. Participants can keep their designs simple or develop more intricate pieces, depending on their interest and confidence. This workshop is most suitable for adults and older children, 12+ (all under 16’s must be accompanied by an adult). Booking essential, get your free place here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/hidden-messages-in-nature-a-love-parks-creative-workshop-tickets-1988824720276

More about Cayton

North Yorkshire, England

Cayton sits quietly in North Yorkshire, far from the rush but never short of a good time. The Westway Open Arms has been serving up local gigs and live music for years without missing a beat. It is rare to find such a steady hand on the tiller in a village this size. Pub quizzes pop up through the week and the odd open mic night keeps things interesting for those who like to sing their hearts out. Near Here pulls it all into one place so you are not stuck checking a dozen websites on a Sunday evening.
