SPACE FOR WHAT ACTUALLY MATTERS
Local Creative &
Social Sessions
Kingston upon Thames (KT1), close to Surbiton
Two hours to switch off, create and connect
Step away from everyday life for a couple of hours and spend some time creating in the company of other women.
Choose from a selection of creative activities, settle in with a hot drink and enjoy the time at your own pace. Chat with the women around the table, become absorbed in what you're making, or do a bit of both.
No artistic experience needed.
2 hours · £25 per person · Maximum 6 guests
Make the two hours what you need them to be
Switch off for a while
Settle into something creative and give your attention to what's in front of you.
Try something different
Explore creative activities you may not have tried before, without having to buy materials or equipment. Examples and guidance are provided.
Enjoy some company
Come on your own or with someone you know. Chat while you create or simply enjoy the company.
Take your time
There's no pressure to finish anything. Some activities can be completed in one session, while larger projects can be continued over future visits.
What would you like to create?
Fancy trying something new, or spending time on a creative activity you already enjoy?
When you arrive, you'll find a selection of activities ready to explore. You might feel like colouring, doodling, scratch art, reverse colouring or adding a little sparkle with bedazzling. Other activities will be available from time to time, so there may be something different to discover on your next visit.
Have a look at the finished examples, choose whatever catches your interest and get started at your own pace. All the materials are provided, along with simple guidance if you need it.
You're also very welcome to bring along a creative project you're already working on.
Some activities, including diamond painting and painting by numbers, depend on the kits available that day. If there's something particular you'd love to try, just get in touch before booking.

There are never more than six guests at a session.
Keeping the sessions small means there's space to settle in, chat with the other women around the table and concentrate on what you're making without the atmosphere of a large class.
There is also no minimum number for scheduled sessions. Once you've booked your place, the session will go ahead even if you're the only guest that day.

Private Creative & Social Sessions are also available by arrangement, at dates and times outside the regular schedule.
They're a lovely way to spend a couple of hours creating and chatting with friends or family, with the Garden Room reserved just for your group.
Private sessions welcome mixed groups of women and men, as well as teenagers aged 13–17 accompanied by a responsible adult.
Let me know your preferred date, time and number of guests. I'll confirm availability and send you a private booking and payment link.

A few useful things to know
Can I come on my own?
Absolutely. You're very welcome to book on your own or with someone you know. Sessions are deliberately small, so you won't be walking into a large group.
Can I book for more than one person?
Yes, you're welcome to attend with friends. However, each place must be booked and paid for separately.
Simply select the same date and time for each booking. Please check that enough places are available before making your bookings.
What if I'm the only person who books?
Your session will still go ahead. There is no minimum number for scheduled sessions.
Can we book the whole session for our group?
Yes, provided all six places are still available. Each place must be booked and paid for separately through the regular booking calendar.
Alternatively, you can enquire about a private session at a different date or time.
How do private group bookings work?
Private sessions can be arranged for groups of up to six people, outside the regular session times.
Contact me with your preferred date, time and number of guests. I'll confirm availability and send the organiser a private booking link to pay for the group.
The minimum charge is £100 for up to four guests. Five guests cost £125 and six guests cost £150.
What if I don't finish what I'm making?
That’s absolutely fine. Some activities can be completed during one session, while others may take a little longer.
If you’re nearly finished with a small project, you may be able to take it home with any small consumable materials needed to complete it.
Larger projects that are likely to take more than one session should be discussed with me before you start. If you’d like to continue the project over future visits, it can be left safely at the Garden Room ready for your next session.
Finished projects are always yours to take home.
Can I bring something I'm already working on?
Yes. If you already have a creative project you'd like to spend some time on, you're very welcome to bring it with you.
What if I have a question before I book?
If you'd like to check anything before booking, please email me at [email protected] and I'll be happy to help.
