This is great news. But it seems many of the courses have already started. And I can’t seem to find many, if any evening courses. Are courses only day time for distance learning?

Hi, You can still join a class up to the third week of the course, and we are adding more courses to the programme on an ongoing basis.

In terms of times, it depends on the course. Whilst many do take place during the day we do have evening classes too in art, drawing and painting, life drawing, keyboard, cookery, languages etc.

Regards,

Selina

The online classes are a lot cheaper than on-premises courses - either £10 or £20. Definite worth a go!

There are even online life drawing classes - not sure how they will work but might be fun to find out!

Although I’ve no idea how online pottery classes work - perhaps they’re for people who have clay at home?

For purely selfish motives I’d like to encourage people to sign up for the embroidery class:

Yeah. The pottery one intrigued me. I lost out on my last class for beginners pottery due to the closure. I hope at one point I can retrieve and finish projects. My first throw down class was cancelled to. I was really enjoying this creative output.

Well if you have some fabric, needle and thread, you know which class you can do…
