Workshops & Events
We run and host arts workshops and courses such as sewing, art, papier mache and festive crafts from our ArtSpace on Heapy Street.
We are commissioned to run free family crafts in Macclesfield and surrounding areas at events such as Macclesfield Town Council’s Do Something Summer, Spooky Saturday and Step into Christmas. In addition we have been commissioned to deliver the annual Lunar parade and summer parade in Macclesfield.
