Enamelling Workshop We are delighted to be offering this super creative workshop.

Temari Ball Making Workshop Beautiful, luxurious, and heartfelt. Temari are cherished gifts, symbolizing friendship and loyalty. The making of temari balls is a Japanese craft that originated in China and came to Japan around the 7th century A.D. Traditionally, temari were given as gifts symbolizing deep friendship and loyalty and evolved from a fairly basic form into exquisite works of art. Historically, temari were constructed from the remnants of old kimonos. As time passed, traditional temari became an art, with the functional stitching becoming more decorative and detailed, until the balls displayed intricate embroidery. This workshop is suitable for beginners and will introduce you to the art of the temari, using a basic herringbone stitch to create a traditional design. Your tutor will guide you through the making process. Using an array of colourful threads and a carefully designed pattern, you will create your very own temari ball. The workshop will run from 10.00am until 4.00pm. All the materials and tools will be supplied, including a workshop apron for you to wear during your day. There will be a pause for a ploughman-style lunch partway through the day, which is also provided. Additional ball-bases will be available to purchase on the day, should you wish to go on and make more temari gifts for your friends. This is a wonderful opportunity to create something beautiful, to gift or to treasure. Places on this workshop are limited to 8. Sunday 30th March 2025 10.00am - 4.00pm £80.00 (includes lunch and materials) Birlingham, Worcestershire

Pen and Watercolour Buildings Portrait Workshop What a treat of a workshop, to create a beautiful portrayal of a meaningful building. Using pen and watercolour, you will have the opportunity to bring to life a building – whether that be your home, your childhood home, your favourite coffee shop, or even your garden shed! Your super talented tutor will guide you through the basics of perspective to get the drawing just right, before introducing watercolour to complete your personal representation of your building. All you need to bring with you is a clear photograph of your chosen building, preferably printed out (working from an image from a tablet or iPad is ok, but a phone would be too small). This workshop is suitable for complete beginners, even those who believe they can’t draw. Your day will run from 10.00am until 4.00pm, with a pause for a ploughman-style lunch. Your lunch and the materials to create your portrait will be provided. So, what building will you choose? And will the masterpiece be for keeps or for gifting? Places on this workshop are limited to 8. Saturday 21st June 2025 10.00am - 4.00pm £85.00 (includes lunch and materials) Birlingham, Worcestershire

Adolescence: What have we learnt? In March 2025, the Netflix series Adolescence sparked widespread conversation about the hidden lives of young people, raising important questions about the support we provide to the youth in our care. Three months later, what have we learned? Regardless of how we engage with young people, there's valuable insight to be gained from this powerful story. We’d like to share the key takeaways and reflect on how we can better support the next generation. How the day will go Join us at 9.30 for coffee and pastries, before we hear from a guest speaker on the impact Adolescence has had on their context. Following a short coffee break we will then have time to explore how we can each respond, using the Open Space Technology conference tool to create opportunities for the conversations that will help us to move forward appropriately. We will end with lunch at 12.30pm. Key Information We will be gathering at Youthscape in Luton, which is conveniently located next to Luton Train station, for those traveling by train. For those driving, please note that the car park directly outside Youthscape is no longer available, the closest car park can be located on Power Court, just a 5 minute walk from the venue.
