No matter where you are in the city, from Aberdare to Islington to Pokolbin, these locally-run workshops in Newcastle are the perfect place to get you out of your comfort zone and pick up a new, creative hobby. Perfect for complete beginners or experienced makers, your passionate teachers will guide you step-by-step through the creative process. Enter a safe and inspiring space, ready to learn and have some fun with your loved ones.
Looking for fun activities in Newcastle for Mum? Send her on a wine tasting tour in the Hunter Valley, which is just one hour away from Newcastle. There, you and Mum will get to visit breweries and vineyards with local experts, sample some wine and cheese and take in the picturesque views of this beautiful location.
