Petals, Shadows & Play Workshop with Katie Sims, Artist (Friday)

A joyful experimental art workshop inspired by flowers, light and creativity. £35.00 per person Maximum Participants: 12 adults Tea and coffee facilities available for a small contribution of £2.50 per person. Plenty of free parking available Yalham Hayes, Otterford Road, Taunton, Somerset TA3 7ED (in the Cow Shed Studio OR outside, weather permitting) What3Words: ///clings.likely.alleyway Join artist and educator Katie Sims for a relaxed and inspiring creative workshop set within the beautiful surroundings of Yalham Hayes - Home and Cutting Garden. Inspired by the collaborative, process-led workshops of Hannah Taylor-Matthews, this session celebrates the joy of creating together, embracing experimentation and finding inspiration in the natural world. Using freshly cut seasonal flowers grown by floral stylist Aizel Finch, we'll begin by tracing the fascinating shadows cast by blooms and foliage before allowing the process to unfold through playful exploration. Using watercolour, ink and pens, you'll create expressive artworks inspired by observation, imagination, colour and the influence of those creating alongside you. This workshop is not about producing a perfect finished piece. Instead, it is an opportunity to slow down, connect with nature, enjoy creative play and experience the wellbeing benefits of making art in a supportive and welcoming environment. Expect conversation, inspiration and plenty of creative freedom around one shared table.

U3A Conference Meeting (Hall-Kitchen)

U3A Conference Meeting (Hall-Kitchen) U3A is a UK wide, cooperative movement of people no longer in full time work who come together to continue their educational, social and creative interests in a friendly and informal environment. More information at U3A Tiverton (tivertonu3a.org.uk) . You could have just have the link shown in blue as the information in the Calendar. On a slightly different subject. We are looking at being able to offer our members a “stream” of the meeting as it happens. I have checked the speed on the Moorhayes guest wireless login and have found that it doesn’t offer enough bandwidth. Is there any chance we could connect directly to the Building’s router? Either by a long cable installed just for the event or via a Ethernet over power line approach. Tony and I are able to visit any time to discuss further if possible.
