Workshops in Wellingborough
As part of an initiative by charity The Artist's Window, together with artist Claire Mycock, we took over an empty unit within the Swansgate Shopping Centre in Wellingborough.
From Tuesday 5 November 2024 to Tuesday 22 April 2025 we opened as a pop-up shop, opposite Specsavers, selling our original art, prints and cards. We were open almost every Tuesday from 10am - 3pm. We also ran a number of well-received workshops in the wonderful space. Both Claire and I run workshops from our home studios. See the workshops information below to find out more.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time opening and running our workshops in this lovely space. We relished the opportunity to chat to visitors about both our art and their interests - it's been wonderful to get to know new people in our locality and we've had lots of fantastic feedback from everyone!
Unfortunately, due to our other commitments, our time there has come to an end.
If you are an artist who would love to follow in our footsteps in the shop, please get in touch, or contact the Artist Windows Team directly!
