Krafty Nippers runs on Thursday afternoons 1.30 - 2.30pm. This is a six week course for 3 and 4 year olds. We immerse ourselves into a new art and craft project each week. We explore a variety of art mediums and most importantly for this age group, the children get to take home their art project weekly.

Krafty Kids art course is for children aged 4½ - 7 years. The course runs on a Thursday afternoon 4pm - 5pm. The children work on projects that sometimes run over 2 or 3 weeks. They learn new artistic skills and explore a variety of fun and creative art mediums. We very much encourage the children to bring their own ideas to these teacher led projects.
Six week course £38.00 per child.
The Krafty Artist course is for children aged 8 years +. The six week course runs on Thursday evenings 5.30pm - 6.30pm. Each course explores an established artist and is used as our inspiration for our own piece of art work. Over the six weeks the children build a project book to run along side their art work, often including notes and sketches as they build their individual piece. The children will work on their projects over the six weeks and do not bring anything home until that point. During this course the children delve into some art history, collect some new knowledge and experiences, but ultimately they are encouraged to explore their own creativity and bring it to their work.
Six week course £40.00 per child.
Krafty tales is a weekly club for children to attend on a Friday afternoon, 1.30pm - 2.30pm. Each week we bring a different story to life by joining in with actions and discovering the emotions of the characters. The children can explore the story box to find dress up outfits or puppets as they become more involved in the story. We play games and very often finish with some play dough, colouring pictures and sometimes a mini art project. Each child receives a membership card and collects a stamp each week, after 6 stamps have been collected the children can choose a book to keep from the story book collection. This club is for children aged 3 and 4 years old who love stories!
Mums also receive a coffee voucher to enjoy a free coffee in Sparks Yard.
Booking is advisable £5.00 per child per week.
Each Saturday morning Krafty Kids runs a drop and shop art sessions for children aged 3 years+. The sessions start at 10am and are hourly for 3 hours. This is a lovely opportunity for parents to take some time out and enjoy a shop or lunch with friends or with each other. It is up to you how long to take, one, two or all three hours. These art sessions are not run in the same way as the art courses above, the children are encouraged to think up their own projects and we work together to get creating.
£5.00 per child Per hour.
