Join Art teacher Justine Hardisty for a sketching workshop at rivers MEET Craft Cafe.
Justine will provide all materials and provide hints, tips and general guidance in the art of sketching architecture. No previous drawing or sketching experience is required - the aim is to have fun!
Dr Emma Storr and Professor Barry Strickland-Hodge will consider the aesthetic appeal of plants and flowers in architecture and their use in remedies.
Enjoy the music of the rivers MEET Strummers who will be playing live in the cafe garden.
rivers MEET Strummers is a friendly music group open to anyone who has dabbled with guitar or ukulele. The Group meets weekly and plays for enjoyment - theirs and yours.
Tap your feet while you eat! The food at rivers MEET is delicious but you don't have to order to enjoy the music.

Learn the art of flag bookbinding!
This easy to learn technique can be used to create some wonderful architectural books. Let your imagination run wild and design your own original work of art. There will be an opportunity to make your own pages for the book using inks and diffusing paper to create a stunning effect as well as using stamps.
Crayons, pencils and felt tips will be provided for you to design your own cover. Alternatively, if you’ve got some favourite papers, you could bring these along to cover the book!
In this 2-hour workshop you will be guided through the process of how to make three pieces of Jesmonite home décor using three techniques - terrazzo, marbling & colour block. You'll create a large coaster, a mini pot and a ring dish, to make a matching/mismatching trio set!
All materials for each process are provided, so you don't have to bring anything other than yourself and potentially an apron. Best of all, because Jesmonite is quick to set, you will be able to take your creations home with you at the end of the workshop!
