All this in seven days 🙌🏻🎨

What a busy week at the studio! We’ve loved every minute of it - and it’s definitely kept us on our toes.

From our preschool art play sessions, to a CREATE workshop for our older kids, the most fabulous K-pop painting party for a lovely six-year-old, and then back full circle to our sold-out term sessions with Matisse and lots of colourful fun this week!

And we’re ready to do it all again, with another busy week and weekend ahead 🙌🏻

If you want to join us, you know what to do - bookings are live on our website now for workshops, parties, Holiday Club and Home Ed. There’s something for everyone 🎨

And next Sunday, booking for our very last term of the year opens to our mailing list. We’re fully booked this term, so if you want the best chance of grabbing one of the spaces left after priority booking, make sure you’re signed up ✨

📆 DATES FOR YOUR DIARY… our next term is coming!

We’re heading into the final few weeks of a completely FULL term at Artsters and we’ve had SO many messages asking when you can join us next… so here we go! 🎨

Our new term starts Monday 26th October and booking begins TONIGHT.

✨ CURRENT TERM MEMBERS — YOU’RE FIRST!
Your exclusive booking opens tonight, giving our current Artsters first chance to secure their space for another term.

💌 MAILING LIST — SUNDAY 4TH OCTOBER
If we have spaces left after priority booking, they’re heading to our mailing list next Sunday.

Not on it yet? There’s still time to get your name on there before that email lands.

🌎 PUBLIC BOOKING — MONDAY 5TH OCTOBER
If there’s anything left after that, remaining spaces will go live on our website.

We’ve been full this term, our winter term is always a popular one AND there are lots of you waiting to join us… so we really don’t expect spaces to hang around.

If you’ve been waiting for your chance to become an Artster, this is it! ❤️🎨

There’s been SO much going on with our bigger Artsters lately and we’ve absolutely loved it!

We’re always listening to what you’re asking us for and thinking about what else we can bring to the studio - we want as many children as possible to have the chance to come and create with us.

And there’s lots more to come 👀

For now, there’s still time to join us this Saturday for our very cute Squishie Design workshop - and then Monster Mash-Up is coming in October!

We’ve got so many ideas for our bigger Artsters… we can’t wait to share what’s next 💛

20/09/2026

Turns out our trash really was your treasure 🙌🏻♻️❤️

Thank you so much to everyone who came along and supported our very last-minute Scrapstore pop-up today!

We hope you find all sorts of wonderful uses for your rescued resources - and please tag us in what you make with them, we’d genuinely love to see it.

And a special mention for Emma who held the fort on her own today while I was elsewhere! Big love ❤️

We might be crazy, but we’ve just had ANOTHER delivery of creative materials rescued from landfill… and this time, it’s all about the PAPER!! 🙌🏼♻️

We have thousands of sheets of perfectly good paper ready for educators, creative crafters and families with children who somehow manage to get through sheet after sheet after sheet. 😂

Plus lots of other creative bits too! I’ll give you a tour around the space shortly so you can see what we’ve got.

This time we won’t be inside the Artsters studio as we’re right in the middle of term, so you’ll find us in the room next door. It might not be quite as pretty… but that won’t matter when you see the bargains!!

And for you early birds who like to get in first, grab your bargains and get home to carry on with your Sunday - we now have an 8.30am slot!

As before, book a 30-minute arrival slot on our website for a £1 donation. This keeps browsing numbers at a happy level, and every pound helps us take another step with our community projects. ❤️

💖 NEW ARTSTERS CREATE: DIY SQUISHIES!

You’ve been asking us for more CREATE workshops for your older kids… so we just had to add another one, and it’s coming up VERY soon!

DIY SQUISHIES! ✨

We’ll be making our own DIY squishies from scratch, using different techniques to make and decorate them, add all the cute details - and making our own packaging too.

They can make as many as they want, so everyone can go home with their own little squishy collection!

✨ Saturday 26th September

And if that’s not enough CREATE for you… just 8 days later we’re back with our Halloween CREATE Special — MONSTER MASH! 👾🎃

Both are live to book now - see you there 🙌🏻❤️

“Just make a mark and see where it takes you.” — Peter H. Reynolds, The Dot 🎨

Well… you know we love a circle. A spot. A dot. Whatever you want to call it.

So it feels very fitting that this week, in honour of International Dot Day, we’ve been making marks inspired by Bridget Riley — circles, spots and dots in all different materials, sizes and ways.

And when we started looking back through the Artsters archives, it turns out we REALLY love a dot 😂

Painty dots, printed dots, spinning dots, giant dots, teeny tiny dots… five years of dots in every possible form.

Because sometimes the simplest starting point can take you absolutely anywhere. ❤️

Happy International Dot Day!

We’re heading back to the wonderful Beaumont Hall at the Botanic Gardens for this one!

👾 CREATE: MONSTER MASH | 5–11 years

A Monster Mash-up our older Artsters won’t want to miss! We’ll be creating brilliantly bonkers 3D monster faces with mirrors, googly eyes, crazy teeth and plenty of creative freedom to make them completely their own.

Just here to say - it’s so good to have you all back in the studio!

As much as we loved the reset, it’s just not right when our painting wall is bare…so here it is filling up with colour already 🎨

Just our *sold out* Friday session to come tomorrow 🤩

Thank you for a great first week back
