Weekly Classes

Art classes.

We start the spring term on Tuesday January 8th 2008.

Classes are held on Tuesday mornings from 10 to 12 in Bramfield Village Hall.

The cost will be £8 per session. You are welcome to attend as many or as few sessions as you can, only paying for the weeks you attend.  You need to bring your own equipment; paper, paint, brushes, water pot, palette and rag. There is no need to book.

Tuesday classes will be as follows;
