• All materials provided

Quay Drawing present a series of Art Classes at Cafe Collective.

Our new Cafe Collective classes are going to change a bit. We are running them in sessions at the usual times, but the focus will not be on themes. We will still have things to observe, draw and paint but we also want to develop your ideas and images. That may include working from your material or photographs developing your ideas in the direction you want. We will have some sessions later in the year with a portrait model and printing materials. There will be Cafe Collective cake!

All materials and equipment are provided together with excellent refreshments by Cafe Collective.

Cost: £18 per session and £95 for all six.

the venue

Cafe Collective, Bideford

Cafe collective is a small friendly cafe situated on the corner of Grenville Street, Bideford. The owners are keen creative people who produce fantastic food. They provide our students with gorgeous cakes and beverages during the classes. The classes run in the downstairs space which is private and warm. The cafe is only a few steps from the historic pannier market which we use as inspiration for our townscape classes. The location is very convenient with car parking in the Pannier Market car park or on Bideford Quay. Buses also run frequently to the Quayside.

 

directions

Coming from the quay, Cafe Collective is located on the corner of Grenville Street and High Street. If you use either the Pannier Market car parks you can walk through to the Pannier market square by using the passage behind the Joiners Arms. Once in the square go down to Grenville Street and turn left. The Cafe is at the end of the road.
