All PACS workshops and life drawing sessions are aimed at artists of all levels and are taught by experienced artists from a variety of backgrounds.
Life drawing sessions are organised by George Spear who can be contacted on georgespear1@me.com.
Sessions take place at Liss Triangle Centre and are half day.
Members will be informed as soon as booking is open and you are advised to book promptly as the workshops will be advertised to non-members.
Simply choose your workshop from the drop-down list in the main menu and follow the steps to book and pay.
If you find the workshop is fully booked, you can fill in the request form on the workshop page to be added to a reserve list.
You will usually be expected to bring your own materials unless specialised materials (for example clay or gold leaf) are required, in which case a small extra charge may be applied. All information will be provided to you after booking.
All workshops take place at the Liss Triangle Centre from 10am-4pm on a Saturday.
For general questions regarding any workshops please email Alan Horgan on workshops@petersfieldartsandcrafts.org.uk

For some workshops we can take fewer students (e.g. where each person requires a much larger workspace) or the instructor fee is significantly higher so in these cases the price may be higher.

Once payment is made your place is non-refundable unless there is a very exceptional circumstance. If you find you are unable to come at short notice you are welcome to hand your ‘ticket’ to another member (or non-member if you have paid the non-member price) but please let us know so that we know who to expect on the day. If we refund your booking, there will be a £5 administration fee as a token gesture of the extra work involved as we do not have an automated booking system.

until June 2023
Our audience is a mixture of amateurs and professionals, all ages and with a broad spectrum of art and craft interests. We have painters and potters, silversmiths, textile artists and more.
We are always on the lookout for artists and makers who are experienced in presenting to a group or teaching a whole day workshop. You might be offering to speak about your career as an artist, potter, sculptor or artisan crafter. You might have specialist knowledge of an aspect of creative work in which you are able to give an evening lecture. Maybe you are involved with working in a heritage craft and could tell us about its history and give a demonstration.
A whole day workshop usually involves teaching up to around 16 people although this number depends on what is being taught and how much room each person requires.
We are open to ideas! If you would like to get in touch please contact our demonstrations coordinator Louise Turpin (demonstrations@petersfieldartsandcraft.org.uk) with more details and contact information. We will keep your details safe and will consider you for future events.
