Art & Craft Classes in Derby

If you're after art and craft classes near Derby, there is one to know about, and it means a proper drive out to Matlock. Easel Weasel Art Workshops runs two hour sessions where you pick a medium, acrylics, linocut, watercolour or soft pastels, and get stuck into it properly rather than just dabbling. There's food on site too, so you're not rushing off starving the second the session ends. With only the one option, the choosing is really about which medium appeals on the day. Linocut suits anyone who likes a bit of method and pressure, watercolour rewards a lighter touch, and acrylics are forgiving if you want to layer things up and change your mind. Soft pastels are the messiest of the four, so dress for it. Two hours is enough time to finish something you'd actually want to keep, and it's worth deciding on your medium before you set off given the distance out to Matlock.
