FAQs:
Where is the course held?: 3 First Cross Road, next to Twickenham Green. Some of you might have visited for open studios. We’ll have a huge table set up in the back room which has fantastic natural light, a lovely garden view and easy access to the kitchen for teas, coffees etc.
Can I park nearby?: Yes, there is parking through Ringo outside, be sure to park in the correct area, between 3 First Cross Road and Hampton Road, the rest of the road is residents parking only.
Can I put the lunch I am bringing in the fridge?: Yes!
I’m very much a beginner, is that ok?: Yes that’s absolutely fine. The workshop will give you more fun ways to approach working with charcoal, with more varied and interesting results, and introduce you to drawing tools you may not be aware of.
Enrolment deadline: To be sure of a place please book early, but if there is availability you can book up to 2 days prior to the start date. This allows me to ensure I have the materials and set up for everyone. Any closer than that, please message me to check.
Refund policy: The workshop is exchangeable up until 28 days prior to the workshop date if another is available, or can be refunded with a £25 admin fee if you need to cancel. After this date your booking is non-refundable and non-exchangeable. This enables the workshop to go ahead for others.
What if the course is cancelled by me?: A workshop with fewer than 5 participants may be cancelled. You will be notified by email if this happens, unless you would like us to text you instead, but please let us know. A refund would then be made which might take a few days to come through.
