studio practice sessions autumn opening times
9th September – 19th December 2024
“Clay, watercolours, oil paints, pastels – you name it, they have got it at Imagine. Here you can produce whatever you fancy, from serious art to just a play with colours, in a peaceful atmosphere. You may either be left ‘to get on with it’ quietly or discuss your work with the very patient therapists if you wish.” Elisabeth T.
we offer four different studio practice sessions:
Monday & Tuesday 2-5 pm
Wednesday evening 7-9 pm
Thursday morning 10am-1pm
This is an open studio space for you to pursue your own artistic process. The group is facilitated by one or two therapeutic arts practitioners, who are available to support the participants artistically, technically and – if needs be – emotionally. The emphasis, however, is on the members to develop their own work, in a supportive and social environment. This is a particularly good space in which to develop a theme or a body of work over a period of time. There is the possibility, if you wish, to share and review your work in the social context.
£9/hour, or £25 for a 3-hour session – to book follow this link

“I came to a point where I was unable to paint or use colour. It was very painful. But at Imagine I was given the means, and accompanied, through to opening of a locked door and out again to the light, and a new freedom.” Angela G
