Back by popular demand following our sell-out New Annual workshop, join Yvette Ten-Bohmer in a fun afternoon getting creative with a unique painting session celebrating Newcastle. This workshop pays homage to the great Van Gogh with a Newcastle twist. Yvette Ten-Bohmer will take you on a journey through Van Gogh’s painting techniques and his fascinating life, as you create your own unique painting celebrating a local Newcastle scene.

There is no skill level necessary for this workshop, just an openness to come and have some fun with friends and try something new. A perfect way to get together with friends before Christmas!
