Explore the wonders of the ocean while making a difference in the lives of others. Don't miss out on this opportunity to give back and enjoy a night at the aquarium.

Rainbows offers a safe and friendly environment, allowing these families to experience music and arts sessions, hydrotherapy, respite and much more. The reason why I am hosting this event is because Rainbows is close to my heart. For those of you who don't know, my niece Willow suffered 2 cardiac arrests at 3 weeks old. After spending the first few months of her life in hospital, undergoing a series of tests, operations and medicine alterations, Willow found her happy place in Rainbows. They didnt only support Willow and give her once in a lifetime experiences that wouldn't be safe for her to do outside of that environment, but they also were an incredible support to the family, allowing them to breathe after such a hard time. Without the care that Rainbows provides, many lives would be a lot different, and its for this reason we are hoping to raise some money to show how much they are appreciated and to ensure they can continue their amazing work. Included in your ticket: Glass of prosecco (or nozeco) The opportunity to explore the aquarium Glass bottom boat tour experience Speeches from those you're supporting Raffle with FINtastic prizes Come and join us for an exciting evening at the oldest aquarium in the world!

In this weekend workshop artist and educator Chloe Briggs brings another innovative drawing class to the Draw studio. With her usual mix of subtle drawing exercises and thoughtful reflection Chloe will help us think about new ways to approach drawing flowers, plants and leaves, bucking the stricter traditions of botanical drawing in favour of a more embodied drawing process. Chloe is based in Paris and although her ‘Drawing is Free’ workshops have an international audience, she rarely teaches in the UK, so this will be a wonderful chance to learn from one of Europe’s most beloved drawing educators.   Chloe’s workshop will be followed by Sarah Simblet’s ‘Drawing from Nature’ ; if you’d like to make it a full five days of drawing from plants, flowers and natural forms you might want to consider signing up for both.     What to Expect   This energising two-day workshop will involve a wide range of exercises, responding to plants and flowers that we will bring to the Draw studio. The ideas we explore will compliment the exercises from Chloe’s Patreon resources, with Chloe providing personal feedback with Draw tutor Jake Spicer on hand to assist.   What to Bring All materials are included with this workshop. You may wish to bring a sketchbook for taking notes and a plastic folder or art tube for taking your drawings home.
