Connect & Create at Hucknall Library: December 2026 - March 2026

Our skilled Connect & Create artists will guide you to experiment with various artistic styles and techniques, as you work alongside others to make your mark and express yourself.

Emma Reynard’s workshops will draw upon shared reminiscence on themes of gardening, food, music and memory. Emma will workshop a range of print, collage and mark-making techniques, using her experience as a designer, artist and illustrator.

Dan Donovan leads fun and relaxed expressive painting classes, creating group-made art and individual pieces. Dan’s focus is on improving wellbeing for individuals by finding their inner artist and making art accessible for everyone, regardless of experience and ability.

Rachel Scanlon invites adults and children to explore their creativity through experimenting with materials, problem solving ideas, collaboration and helping others develop belief in themselves.

These relaxed, hands-on workshops are particularly suitable for older people – including those living with dementia and their supporters.
