The Clayton Creatives

The Super Slow Way Cafe

The Clayton Creatives are a creative social group who meet every Wednesday from 10:30am-1:30pm at Clayton Community Centre. Our sessions are open to everyone, whatever your age or ability level.

We run lots of different sessions which include community projects and exhibitions, “How To” sessions, family friendly holiday activities and drop in social sessions. Whether you are a keen artist who would love to share your skills with others or a complete novice who is looking to meet new people and try something new you will always be warmly welcomed. The kettle is on and the biscuits are ready!

The sessions are completely free although we welcome any donations for refreshments. Most sessions are drop in and no booking is required.

 

Below you can find information about our upcoming FREE workshops throughout spring! Donations welcome for refreshments.

Suitable for all ages and abilities, all are welcome!
