ART PICNICS 2008

Learning Through Looking

Following the success of the 2007 Art Picnic series, we are delighted to announce our programme of picnics for 2008, visiting some old favourite sites as well as new places around the borough, such as Mortlake, Sheen and Richmond Park. Come along to one or more of these picnics to develop your own personal creative skills under the guidance of experienced tutors, including Jill Storey and Emily Burton. If you are unsure about your artistic abilities, there will be a dedicated ‘beginners’ tutor at each picnic giving special coaching.

All picnics start at 11 am and end with a review of the day’s work at 4 pm. Tickets cost £15 for individuals (£10 for Environment Trust members) and £30 for families (two or more people at least one of whom is under 18; £20 for Trust members). Advanced booking is esssential. Please contact the office on 020 8891 5455 to book your place.
