🎨☕🛍️ Calling Our Artsy-Crafty Community! 🛍️☕🎨

We’ve got a logo, we’ve got the space, and now we’re looking for creative people who would love to run workshops, classes, clubs, and events at Heart Space!

Think painting, pottery, knitting, crochet, jewellery making, sewing, scrapbooking, card making, upcycling, mixed media, journaling, kids’ crafts, and so much more. The possibilities are endless!

“Sip” doesn’t have to mean wine — it can be coffee, tea, hot chocolate, or whatever suits your vibe. We have a kitchenette available, a range of art and craft materials on hand, a thrift store full of treasures for inspiration, and a brand-new upstairs creative space dedicated to community connection and creativity.

✨ You decide:
• What you teach
• How you run it
• Your pricing
• Class sizes
• Days and times (preferably during our opening hours)

Our goal is to create a diverse range of creative experiences for the community while supporting local artists, makers, and passionate hobbyists.

If you’ve ever thought, “I’d love to teach that,” we’d love to hear from you!

Pop in for a chat or send us a PM with your ideas. Let’s fill Heart Space with creativity, connection, and community. 💕🎨☕🧶✨

Hi, Jade here 😊

I used to be an art teacher, and I really miss the creativity and connection that comes with it.

I have rooms available upstairs and would love to explore the idea of running art groups or creative sessions. If you’re also interested in hosting a group whether weekly or one off, or workshops, pop in for a chat or send me a PM.

I’d love to hear your ideas! 🎨
