Get creative this Christmas with The Festive Cut! — a relaxed and inspiring collage and photomontage workshop with artist Sam Hobbs.

Dive into a treasure trove of festive materials, including vintage Christmas cards, postage stamps and decorative papers. Learn how to cut, layer and combine them to create your own unique winter-themed artwork.

All materials are provided, so simply bring your imagination and enjoy two hours of festive making in the beautiful setting of Brighton City Airport.

You’ll leave with an original collage, ready to mount and frame — perfect to keep for yourself or give as a special Christmas gift.

Sam will also share simple instructions for reproducing your artwork, so you can turn your collage into Christmas cards for all your friends and family this year.

And there’s more! Your ticket includes a chance to win an original collage made specially for the event by Sam - a unique festive artwork to take home and treasure.
