I lost a week’s trading earlier this month due to my chest infection and reopened on the 13th. Since thenI have had the absolute pleasure to share my drawing tables and the art for fun activity with 67 participants from 2 year olds to adults in their 50/60s .

Another day with 12 participants. Including a family of 5 inc mum and dad we had seen this morning pre work at down the beach. So lots of art chat and drawings. Cards and original postcards drawn. Now 50 participants in 4 days of this school holiday. I added to the hat which is now …
