Graffiti Art Workshop
16th May 2025
Artist in residence Amy Hutchings partnered with Grassroutes to run a graffiti workshop with some participants from Learning Partnership West. The workshop was funded by Project Newton, with St Laurence Church.
​
Due to the practice of spraying paint, the workshop took place outside at East Harptree Pavillion. Amy taught the students how to spray a blend and how to cut a stencil with spray paint. With Amy's expert guidance, it was inspiring to see how naturally talented the students were, and some amazing artworks were created! The students also seemed really happy with their work.

"I enjoyed it and it was good, yeah"
"You get to express your creativity spray painting"
tOTE bAG pRINTING Workshop
22ND jUNE 2025
Artist in residence Amy Hutchings partnered with Valley Arts to run a free Tote Bag Printing workshop at East Harptree Pavillion, open to all ages from 6+. Celebrating the solstice and connection between nature and community, the workshop explored a mixed arts approach using print making, stencils, textiles and creative leaf foraging.
We had a sold out workshop with 20 participants, and a mixture of all ages, which was fabulous to see. Amy showed everyone how to print and stencil designs onto tote bags using a variety of foraged leaves, fabric paint, brushes, sponges and stencils. Each participant left with their own beautifully decorated and unique tote bag celebrating the upcoming Hidden Voices community play.
Thank you to Valley Arts for inviting the Arts Hub to take part in this fantastic project and for funding the workshop.​​
