Craft pressed-flower art in this free workshop, with a complementary seasonal blackberry spritzer, set in this beautiful heritage setting.

Join local artist Helen Brook for this calm, cozy evening workshop this autumn, crafting your own artwork to take home from pressed flowers, leaves & seeds. Take a little time to slow down and reconnect with nature. Everyone is welcome & no art experience is needed.

The Nature Arranged series of sessions are free to attend, fully funded as part of the Kirklees Seasons of Nature programme.

What to expect

Enjoy a locally foraged blackberry seasonal spritzer on arrival, followed by an evening of pressed flower crafting in the stunning setting of St John the Evangelist Church.

You will make: one A4 pressed flower artwork, and at least 1 card, both on plantable seed paper. You will learn about methods of making artwork sustainably, using compostable glues and handmade seed paper. No prior experience is required.

Come along solo, or bring along a family member or friend and create gorgeous, locally foraged art to take home.

One drink will be provided on arrival, but you are welcome to bring along your own beverages to enjoy as part of the workshop.

Where to find us

This workshop will take place in the stunning St John the Evangelist Church. The venue can be accessed directly from Denby Lane.
