Join us at Cody Dock this Summer for our Cody Wilders Summer Workshops Programme!
Free events
We are offering fun art & nature-based workshops – chances to get creative, learn new skills and get to know some of our local urban nature. In each session, we will spend time along the riverside and learn about the wildlife we come across, using this to inspire us as we explore different art techniques.
Our Cody Wilders Summer Workshops are aimed at ages 16-18 and are perfect for nature and art lovers or anyone who would like to try something new!
