Our new season of workshops

Papercraft workshop at Sandham Memorial Chapel

A new year opens up new opportunities to be inspired by Sandham's creative roots. Our new season's workshops offer the ideal opportunity to learn a new craft, inspire other creativity and make something special for you, or a special gift. We welcome back local artist Helen Mortimer who will be running her popular range of workshops and are delighted to welcome another local artist, Claire Knott who will be running a clay relief and a watercolour workshop.
