Cost: £25
Timing: 2-4.30pm
Date: 27 September to 27 September 2026
Join us for an inspiring afternoon of drawing and be among the first to experience our new Youth Art Academy, part of the Olive & Plum Academy of Artists. Designed for young people aged 11–16, this hands-on workshop will guide participants step-by-step through creating a striking owl eye drawing in charcoal.
Working alongside professional artists Sarah Stokes, Jaime Moore and Laura Jayne Smith, students will learn how to build tone, create texture and capture the detail and drama of an owl’s eye. By the end of the session, each participant will take home a finished piece they can be proud of.
No previous experience is necessary and all materials, refreshments and expert tuition are included.
This taster session offers a chance to meet the tutors, experience the teaching style and learn more about the Youth Art Academy, a new programme from the Olive & Plum Academy…
