ABOUT
A mixed media painting combines different painting and drawing materials and methods, rather than only one medium. Any materials can be used, including collage items such as pages from magazines, newspaper, photographs, fabric, soil or packaging.
Learn this fascinating craft which is also a great way to recycle materials around the house.
ABOUT THE CRAFTERS CAFÉ
Crafting is a centuries-old pastime which brings communities together. At The Crafters’ Cafe, we offer a safe, comfortable and fun space to turn off tech for a few hours, engage in the creative process of crafting, take time for mindfulness and reconnect with community. The Crafters Cafe also has a halaal-friendly kitchen which offers delicious real food, as close to the source as possible, catering for herbivores, carnivores, gluten-freers and vegans. Great food, good coffee, excellent company: a winning recipe for lovely memories and reinvigoration!
