Scribble Pad’s Explorers Art Group

From the busy shopping area, laidback café and restaurants to the wilds of the Nene Valley countryside, Rushden Lakes has a lot to visually explore. It is the perfect playground for both beginner and experienced artists alike.

Scribble Pad’s ‘Explorers Art Club’ is a unique blend of learning and exploring. Each week they meet upstairs in the Leisure Terrace, where they will sit for 15-20 minutes and discuss some little techniques to help you on your sketching journey and then as one, move to a location to have a go at putting these skills into practice. This group is all about exploring and observing and Sally will be there to, encourage and tutor as much as is needed.

What to bring: You need to bring your own equipment. The minimum you’ll need is a hardcover sketchbook and pencil. As you gain confidence, you may wish to expand your tool kit with items such as a fine liner, watercolour pencils, markers etc.

A camping chair/stool, a backpack to hold all your things and appropriate clothing for the weather are all recommended too. There will be an extreme weather plan B location each week but be prepared to face the elements. It’s all part of the adventure!

There are two time slots to chose from 9:45am-11:45am OR 12:30pm – 2:30pm.
