  • 5/5 from Karla Gilbard, attended Aug 2026: My friend bought this as a birthday gift for us to go along to together and it was great! We had such a great experience. Big thank you to Kat who led the class, who was able to anticipate when we needed help and when to let us experiment. Would definitely do a class here again in future.
  • 5/5 from Andrea Parsons, attended Aug 2026: This workshop appealed to me when I first saw it, so when a friend's birthday was approaching, I asked if she was interested and bought her a ticket then got my sister-in-law to join us. Kat was a great teacher and showed us some tips and techniques. She encouraged everyone and gave positive feedback, even for those of us who were "artistically challenged". It was a laid-back, friendly atmosphere and we all really enjoyed the opportunity.
