About the teacher:
Graeme Mackay is headteacher at Cygnets Art School in Portobello. His passion for art led him to attend Leith School of Art during his spare time outside of a busy working life in retirement planning and investments. Over the past few years, he has run his own art club, supporting local artists with techniques and theory in drawing and painting. He has now decided to dedicate his life to pursuing art full time, both creating his own work and supporting others in their artistic endeavours.
About the classes:
All materials will be provided, so you just need to bring yourself! You can use the kitchen to make yourself tea or coffee and BYOB if you'd like to bring something alcoholic to drink.
Tickets:
We will have a mixture of £10 and donation-based tickets until we manage to renew our funding. This will allow us to pay our tutors fairly, while still keeping our classes accessible.
All tickets include a free hot drink from the kitchen or BYOB :)
