Refresh your creativity and wellbeing!
Free Creative engagement sessions at Bath Artists Studio during FAB 2018
To celebrate arts and wellbeing during Fringe Arts Bath 2018 Creativity Works has teamed up with local artists to offer the Create Everyday series of workshops. These free creative workshops are inspired by the 5 Ways to Wellbeing (Connect, Keep Learning, Be Active, Give and Take Notice). This stimulating programme includes creative writing, printmaking, ceramics, visual arts and Connect 5 training.
