Creative Connections - Weekly Daytime Adult Art Workshops

Tuesdays | 9.30am–11:30am | 

At Doodlebugs, creativity is more than making something beautiful — it's an act of service, generosity, and self-care. Our workshops are thoughtfully designed to offer space to slow down, reconnect, and give yourself permission to explore. Through mindful, hands-on creative experiences, you'll discover not only new skills but also the quiet therapeutic benefits that come from curiosity, play, and creative flow.


These sessions are an invitation to expand your creative repertoire, experiment with new materials, and open the door to fresh artistic ventures. Whether you're an experienced maker or just beginning your creative journey, Doodlebugs is a welcoming place to explore, learn, and grow — alongside other like-minded creatives who share a love for imagination and expression.

Phoenix Rising - A Creative Connections Evening - Friday 3rd July 2026 (7.30pm-9.30pm)

£25.00

Phoenix Rising

The phoenix has long been a symbol of renewal, strength and transformation. It reminds us that even after life's challenges, we have the ability to rebuild, grow and emerge stronger than before.

This Creative Connections evening invites you to explore these themes through art. Inspired by the energy, movement and vibrant colours of the phoenix, we'll create expressive artwork that celebrates resilience, creativity and new beginnings.

This is not about perfection or artistic skill. It's about allowing yourself the freedom to create, experiment and connect with your own unique expression.

Reflection

The phoenix does not fear change—it rises because of it.

Through creativity, we can explore what we are ready to release, what we wish to nurture, and what is waiting to emerge.

✨ Join us for an evening of creativity, connection and inspiration.
✨ Book your place and discover what is ready to rise.
