Dorset has a rich heritage of stone quarrying and carving, and this is an exciting opportunity to learn this traditional craft. Design a tile illustrating some of Dorset’s wonderful array of flowers, animals, birds and plants. Using lettering chisels and ‘dummies’, work on a tile of soft, creamy Bath stone, then paint your masterpiece in a range of exciting colours. Come armed with an idea and leave with your very own unique stone carving. Dress for mess, wear shoes with closed toes and tie back long hair. This workshop is part of the Artsreach Creative Summer Programme and is suitable for ages 6+www.artsreach.co.uk

Artsreach is a registered charity that brings high quality performances of live theatre, music, dance and family shows to the heart of rural communities across Dorset.
Artsreach is dedicated to providing people in rural areas with the opportunity to choose and promote professional arts events in their local venue.
Our performance programme runs through a network of around 50 volunteer promoting groups and together we organise over 140 high quality professional events every year, usually in village halls, right across rural Dorset.
Not only do our events provide the opportunity to enjoy high quality arts on your doorstep, they are also a great social occasion!
The income generated from audience members purchasing tickets plays a vital role in supporting both Artsreach as a scheme, and the community venues in which events take place, as event box offices are split between both parties.
We are an Artsmark Supporter and Arts Award Partner - do get in touch to find out how we can work together!
