“We don’t stop playing because we grow old - we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw
Play opens the door to the best kind of learning. It stimulates your curiosity and imagination so you may learn in an open and creative way. Play is free of judgement. It has no rights or wrongs that can create barriers to your personal growth. And though play may sometimes lack purpose, play is never pointless. It reframes work and effort so you can learn in the best kind of way.
Wood Play Studio is a space where you can come and play. We offer a range of wood craft and art sessions designed to be playful and creative drawn from the disciplines of carving, joinery, marquetry and painting. Wood Play focuses on hand tools and techniques making contemporary pieces no larger than your aeroplane carry-on luggage.
