Saturday morning fun for kids who are bursting with creativity!!!

One of Brixham's hidden gems is the SATURDAY MORNING ART & DRAMA CLUB.

Create.workshops have been running the club for the past year in conjunction with the Brixham Community College and The Lighthouse Gallery, and it has been a huge success with children and their parents.

The club offers children many exciting art projects, games and drama adventures based on themes such as Dino Exhibition, Journey into Space, Arabian Nights and much, much more. It is a great chance to catch up with friends and maybe make some new ones! The club is for children ages 4+ and runs from 9.30am - 12.00pm at The Lighthouse Gallery in Brixham Community College. The club costs £5 per session and there is no need to book for the term. You can just drop in and have fun! For further information contact Jo or Sam at create.workshops 07962 848002 / 07886 347998. www.createworkshops.co.uk
