Book Make and Do Workshops

Arts & Crafts Workshops

Make and Do run painting and making workshops for children of all ages. They will supply two members of staff and all materials including tables if necessary.

A standard day would consist of a ‘drop-in’ system, whereby around 200 children will come and go as they please, each one making something to take home – no booking required. There are many items available to make including masks, hats & small banners. There are a wide range of Arts & Crafts themes to choose from, and workshops can be tailor made to suit specific promotions.

Please not that Make and Do cannot be responsible for children – adults must be local at all times. Make and Do have been running workshops for 14 years and have developed a very smooth system of dealing with large volumes of children. All workshops are self-contained, well controlled and leave no mess.

In a standard day they run 2 x 2-hour Arts & Crafts workshops with a break in between.

The ideal space is 4 x 4 metres, but this can be flexible.

“I wanted to express my gratitude toward Make & Do. It was an absolute pleasure to work with them. They were professional, friendly and exceptional with both the parents and children. They also had a really good understanding of our event and went out of their way to encourage children to take part in the other activities – I have no doubt this contributed significantly to the success of the event and its other features, for which I am extremely grateful. I will be recommending them for future events.”
