Get ready to unleash your inner artist at this fundraiser for the Market Garden!

Fly Agaric Paint Party at Platt Fields Market Garden

Sunday 13 September | 1pm - 3pm

Come and paint this bold and bangin' Fly Agaric toadstool at Platt Fields Market Garden, with its classic red cap, crisp white spots and striking colours.

This is a two-hour guided paint party in the market garden's outdoor marquee. You don't need any painting experience to take part.

You'll be guided through the painting step by step, from the first brush stroke to the finished canvas.

And there's a bonus: your £35 ticket helps support Platt Fields Market Garden / Manchester Urban Diggers, with a portion of the proceeds going directly to the market garden.

Your ticket includes

Canvas to take home

All paints and painting materials

Brushes

Three hours of step-by-step tuition

Your own finished Fly Agaric painting

You don't need to know how to paint. Complete beginners are welcome.

Paint, then take it home

For £35, you get to spend three hours creating an original piece of artwork yourself, with everything provided.

You'll leave with your own finished Fly Agaric canvas, painted by you.

Come with friends, make a day of it, or book a ticket and come along on your own.

At Platt Fields Market Garden

We'll be painting outdoors in the marquee at Platt Fields Market Garden, surrounded by the gorgeous, inspirational garden.

Your ticket also helps support the work of Manchester Urban Diggers, so you're not just coming along to paint. You're helping support a local community growing project too.
