✨ Another wonderfully creative week at Evolving Roots ✨

This week we’ve been sewing sock monkeys, creating button art, painting canvases, making crystal art and designing masks too 🎨🧵✨

Alongside the art and creativity, there’s also been time for conversation, connection, games, laughter and simply feeling comfortable enough to be yourself.

Thank you to all of our amazing young people and families for being part of it 💛
We can’t wait to see what next week brings ✨

Really fun and creative session today 💛

We made sea life shortbread (with some amazing marbled icing!), spent some time at the park in the sunshine, made lots of badges and fridge magnets, and did a bit of sewing too 🐟🧵

See you all next week for more creative fun! Have a wonderful weekend 🤩

🌊✨ Our final Tuesday session (for now) ✨🌊

Tonight we finished our block of Tuesday after school art sessions with these amazing underwater pieces 🐬🦀🐚

We couldn’t be prouder of what this group has created together 💙

It’s been such a special space over the past 18 weeks, and it’s been so lovely to watch confidence grow and friendships form along the way.

Although Tuesdays are taking a little pause for now, we’re so grateful to everyone who’s been part of it, and we really hope to bring these sessions back when funding opportunities arise 💛

Thank you to all the wonderful children and their families for being part of it 🌿

✨ A little update from Evolving Roots ✨

As our Tuesday after school sessions come to a pause after this evening, we just wanted to share a bit about our other sessions 💛

🌿 Thursdays – Community Creative Sessions
Thursdays are part of our National Lottery supported Creatively Connected – Flourishing Families project and are designed as a calm, supportive space for young people and their grown-ups to spend time together.

We encourage adults to stay where possible, whether that’s joining in with activities, having a cuppa and a chat, or just being part of the space ☕🎨
We know life is busy and it’s not always possible, but this session is really about connection and wellbeing, and is a little different to a typical drop-off after school group.

✨ Fridays – Creative Arts & Wellbeing (11+)
Fridays are a small creative group for young people over 11 who are home educated, EOTAS or flexi-schooled.

We’ve absolutely loved our Tuesday after school art group and hope to bring those sessions back in the future when funding allows 💛

Lovely first session back after the Easter break in New Earswick with our over 11s

It was really nice to see everyone and meet two new young people, we really hope you felt welcomed and comfortable 😊

It was great to see everyone settling back in and making the space their own 🎨✨

We really enjoyed it, thank you to everyone who came along today 💛

Tonight’s after school printing session 🌊🎨

We’ve been working together to create this collaborative underwater piece, layering printing, painting and drawing to build up the final artwork. It’s been lovely to do this all together and create one shared piece 💛

We have just one more Tuesday session left before we take a short pause while we wait for further funding.

Thank you so much to everyone who has been part of our Tuesday group, it really has been such a special space ✨

We’ll keep you updated as soon as we have news about future Tuesday after school sessions.

✨ Friday Creative Arts & Wellbeing Sessions (Ages 11+) ✨

We currently have a small number of spaces available on our Friday sessions (10am–2pm, New Earswick).

For new starters this half term, we are offering a 3-week trial block:
👉 £45 for full sessions (£15 per session)
👉 £30 for half sessions (£10 per session)
(payable in advance)

This gives young people the opportunity to settle into the group and experience the sessions before committing longer term.

Sessions are usually £20 per full session (4 hours) or £15 for a half session, and are booked in half-term blocks.

These sessions are ideal for home educated learners or those who thrive in a smaller, more supportive and creative environment 🎨

Please feel free to message for more details or to book a space 💛

✨ And just like that, our Easter sessions are over!

We’ve had such a lovely time and want to say a big thank you to everyone who came along and got involved in the crafts 💛

It’s been so nice to welcome back familiar faces and also meet some new ones 😊

We hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did, and we’d love to see you again soon!

Next week we’re back to our normal schedule, and we’re really looking forward to seeing everyone at the sessions 🎨
