What a wonderful experience for our Oakleaf clients through the Showgoers project at the Arnaud Theatre. ๐Ÿ˜Š
Our clients had the chance to explore the theatre, enjoy tea and coffee together, and spend time in a safe, welcoming environment. The warmth and kindness shown by the theatre team was amazing, and weโ€™re so grateful for the opportunity.
And then came Glorious!โ€ฆ which absolutely lived up to its name ๐ŸŽญโœจ
A huge thank you to everyone involved. Opportunities like this highlight the power of connection, creativity, and community - and the positive impact that the arts can have on wellbeing.

Express Yourself Through Sketching โ€“ New Creative Workshop

We are pleased to share our new Express Yourself Through Sketching session with Andrew Fryer, running at Oakleaf from May ๐ŸŽจ

The first session was very successful. The atmosphere was calm and relaxed, and clients really enjoyed learning new skills and exploring their creativity in a supportive environment ๐Ÿ˜Š

In this 5-week workshop, you will learn basic sketching techniques using graphite pencils. The focus is on self-expression, building confidence, and enjoying the creative process โœ๏ธ

This session is suitable for beginners as well as those who already enjoy drawing. It is a friendly space to explore ideas, improve skills, and enjoy sketching together ๐Ÿง

Meet Colette Moscati - one of our wonderful Art Activity Leaders. ๐ŸŽจ

"I am a self-taught painter based in Farnham, Surrey. Growing up in a family of female painters, I was encouraged to express my fascination for capturing moments in nature in oils, watercolours and later silk painting. Having lived on the Scottish coast I have a love for expansive landscapes, cooler colour palettes, and the beauty and feeling of freedom of being outdoors.

Since retiring from a corporate career in 2013, I've been devoted to my art practice exploring themes and creating collections that echo my experiences and surroundings. My inner journeys are often expressed in outward form, using nature as my mentor. My passion lies in celebrating life and nature by noticing details through colour and abstraction, bridging reality and intuition. I am keen to reward the viewer for stepping closer to my work so that the closer you get the more you see.

Each piece reveals layers of colour and paint texture, inviting viewers to experience the beauty of fleeting moments in nature that have then inspired me back in the studio. I hope my interpretations allow viewers to create their own stories so they may pause and ponder what they might represent to them on a personal level.

Donating, selling and having my art commissioned are all great honours for me, the ultimate form of connecting with others through art and is definitely the icing on my art cake.

Last year as part of my belief that practicing art has health benefits I was delighted to become an Art Activity Leader at Oakleaf. The sessions I lead are a way of sharing my own knowledge, however more importantly they are very much about helping others to have a regular practice or opportunity to be creative, encourage their innate talents and curiosity and have fun in a restorative way. Art for me is such a great way to reconnect with yourself and spend time with others.

I am grateful to be a small part of this organisationโ€™s services and to spend quality time with their clients. It is a joyful part in my week that I always look forward to!"

Pictured is a mixture of Colette's work and pieces designed by our clients. ๐Ÿ™‚

We had a wonderful time during our Easter activity, enjoying a fun and creative egg colouring afternoon. Clients decorated real boiled eggs and explored how Easter is celebrated around the world ๐ŸŒ

The session was a great success โ€“ everyone created amazing, colourful egg designs, and it turned out to be a fantastic idea to use them as decorations for Easter meals over the weekend! ๐ŸŽจ๐Ÿฅš
