Service Description

Travel Sketchbooks Holiday Art Workshop for Ages 8+ Join us this holiday for a beautifully imaginative two-day art workshop, perfect for children aged 8 and up. In this technique-led course, young artists will create their very own travel sketchbooks to use over the summer holiday, learning simple bookbinding techniques to make a personalised journal they can continue to fill throughout their adventures. Through drawing, colour work, and layout design, students will explore what it means to be a visual storyteller – capturing their “travels” across the pages using personal style, observation, and creative invention. What to Expect Over two sessions, students will: - Learn how to plan and structure pages for a travel sketchbook. - Explore quick-sketch techniques and warm-up drawing exercises. - Study landscapes and landmarks. Design and create a series of travel-inspired illustrated postcards to send or keep. This workshop encourages creativity, curiosity, and confident mark-making while building foundational drawing and storytelling skills. Skill Level Tailored for ages 8+, with a focus on developing observational drawing and composition. If your budding artist is under 8 and would like to join us, please get in touch – we’re happy to advise on suitability. What to Bring A nut-free snack and bottle of water Old clothes or an apron – creativity can get messy! Session Schedule This is a two-day course, running on consecutive days during the school holidays. Spaces are limited, so early booking is recommended to secure your place.
