Tea, Cake & Art brings people together every week to be creative, have fun, learn new skills, and meet each other. Within these sessions we explore creative activities such as collage, drawing, painting, textiles and clay modelling in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
A range of local artists join every so often to deliver sessions exploring different materials, skills and ideas. The groups are delivered by experienced Art Centre Penryn staff with free hot drinks, cake and all materials provided.
Tea, Cake & Art is for people aged over 65 who would like to meet and spend time with others in a creative and sociable setting. No previous experience of art is needed, and all activities will be suitable for complete beginners as well as those who already take part in creative activities.
In the sessions we explore a range of creative activities such as collage, drawing, painting, textiles and clay modelling, all in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The group encourages exploring art, playful expression and making new friendships.
