Acrylic Painting Workshop

Immerse yourself in colour and creativity at our acrylic painting workshop, inspired by the wonderful gardens around Shibden Hall. We’ll experiment with paint application, tone and colour, explore our beautiful, natural surroundings through sketch and use everything we’ve learned to create a painting inspired by the garden’s seasonal beauty. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned painter, this is a chance to play, develop skills, paint with others in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere and take home a unique, Shibden-inspired artwork of your own.

Please note - acrylics can stain and, weather-depending, we'll be spending time outdoors so please dress accordingly!

You will be provided with all the materials you need during the class. Hot drinks are included in the ticket and will be available throughout the workshop, but we ask that you bring a packed lunch with you.

Please note this event will be held in our Education Room, which is located on the first floor of Shibden Hall. Please contact museum.learning@calderdale.gov.uk to discuss any access needs.

Suitable for ages 16+
