Pelham Arts Workshops

Pelham Arts are able to offer a wide range of creative workshops to suit a wide range of ages.

Op Art

The optical approach to drawing and painting is one that is actively encouraged by Pelham Arts. By looking at this subject, learners are able to gain a firm understanding of how colours work together. Workshops explore the use of the complimentary colour wheel and two-tone relationships in order to create grand designs useful for the home and personal practice. These workshops explore the work of 3 dimensional paintings and examples of interior design.

Sculpture workshops also include mask making, with wirework and filigree. Ceramics workshops and glazing techniques are available on a facility provided basis.
