Just letting everyone know that the Art n Social is still on, it disappeared from the website because we've been running for over 6 months. It now has all the dates till the end of the year available to book.
Look forward to seeing anyone that can make it.

Art group today has lots of choices, from creating a cardboard cactus, to making a silhouette picture.
These are the two planned activities, however, sometimes with art group the artist already has a plan, and that is great!! Because that means that art group is the "looking forward to" thing. And those things are the best and make the rest of the week (just a little) easier.

Muffin stuffin is on tomorrow 11am till 1pm, come and share all the good stuff, the "oh h*ll no" stuff, and the "when do they start sleeping through" stuff with others who get it. Enjoy a drink at a temperature that is what it's meant to be and maybe find a smile or a laugh. Baking by Good Bi***es Baking always means there's something yummy to brighten the day.

Teen art is back, with a range of different art options from painting to flower creation, and airdry clay. What creativity you feel like is (hopefully) available, but if you'd like something then let us know and we will see what we can do.

The other exciting thing is this will now be run by G16's resident artist Alison Rush. See her work on her page AM Rush Artist. But what UHAG says about Alison is: she is kind, caring, knows painting from house to miniature, carves stone, explores art in every way, and is happy to adapt to what people in her groups want to create while supporting them with her knowledge. And she loves the sensory swing at UHAG HQ.
