Our programme of free workshops continues in the run up to Christmas, in collaboration with our friends at the Naughton Gallery at Queen’s!

Workshops take place in the main Lanyon Building at Queen’s University. Please note, the rooms change from workshop to workshop, so make sure to check our website & social media beforehand. On the day, a member of the GTG team (wearing a yellow lanyard) will also be waiting in front of the building to direct you.

Workshops are facilitated by Katharine Paisley, Jen Alexander and our lovely volunteers.

Workshops are ALL FREE, and snacks and all materials will be provided as usual! Booking is required for the Family workshops and the Teens & Adults workshops.
