Art & Craft Classes in Manchester

If you are after art and craft classes in Manchester, the choice on here right now is Art Table. It runs birthday parties built around proper art projects rather than the usual soft play scramble, so a group of children might spend the afternoon screen-printing tote bags one visit and making fluffy slime the next. Parties start from £100 and booking ahead is essential, since sessions are planned around whichever project you choose. It suits a small group of older children happy to sit and concentrate on one craft rather than toddlers wanting to run about, and it works well as a proper alternative to a standard party venue when you want something to actually take home at the end.
