Create a magical landscape or striking sculpture from driftwood, natural, found and recycled materials in this hands-on workshop with artist Nicky Wilkie.

Working with materials shaped by land, sea and weather, participants will be guided to create their own unique piece of art to take home. Whether you’re drawn to wild coastal landscapes, curious creatures or abstract forms, this is a chance to experiment, play and make something beautiful from what might otherwise be overlooked.

No previous art experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to create.

Suitable for adults and secondary school-aged young people

All Workshop Tickets are £5

We want our PoP Shop workshops to be affordable, welcoming, and open to as many people as possible. Every place is subsidised through donations and festival fundraising, and your £5 ticket helps us cover the real costs of running the session, including the tutor, space, and materials.

Spaces are very limited, with most workshops only able to welcome 10–20 people. Please only book if you are confident you can attend. If something changes, let us know as soon as possible so we can pass your place on.

Free Places & Access

Free places are available through our Community Ticket Fund. If the workshop cost is a barrier, please contact us, we want these workshops to be open to everyone.

If you have any access requirements you would like us to know about, please also get in touch.
