Explore Pastel Art

This fun half-day workshop is designed for beginners or those wanting to try a new medium. You’ll learn which pastels to use, explore various types of paper and understand different ways to apply pastel. We'll even create a tiny artwork together for you to take home!

MAz’s workshops

These workshops repeat every 4 weeks. Dates are visible by clicking the info/book buttons.

A woman with bright red hair dressed in a tiger-striped outfit is on her stomach, leaning on a piece of furniture, with her arms extended forward. Other women are seated at tables or standing in an art gallery or classroom, with paintings hanging on the walls behind them. There is a sign on a small black ottoman that reads 'NO ACCESS BEYOND THIS POINT!'
