It all started with finding a creative tribe & wanting to make it bigger…
We started in Edinburgh launching the Edinburgh Art Workshop after moving to the city & wanting to build a community that was creative & get to know other creatives whilst providing accessible art classes in the evenings for Adults.
After a year of teaching, we realised that many of our students wanted the access & accountability after our courses were finished, to continue being creative at home without having to get to class physically each week.
So we realised why not reach out to you online & build a community to bring even more individuals together in our creative bubble.
Thats how we created “THAT Art Club” a Thriving Happy Artist Tribe where you can meet others online take part on our physical retreats twice a year & join in on our weekly online meetups to keep you creative at home whilst helping you build a routine that helps your inner artist grow.
Art for me has been a life saver, its helped me through the darkest times in my life & has allowed me to connect with my surroundings.
Whilst working for a charity before I moved to Edinburgh I realised the need for art in peoples lives. It allowed for cathartic release & a visual way to process ideas along with emotions. Sometimes the physicality & movement that comes with creativity can help us deal with emotions unconsciously.
I want to encourage everyone to be creative & make it accessible to you whether your at home or on holiday. I want to encourage you to think outside the box & be open to the beauty around you & build skills that make you feel confident enough to explore your passions creatively.
And THAT is what we’re all about.
