Art Café Sessions
Create at your own pace in our art café. Drop in, choose your materials, and switch off for a couple of hours. No experience needed. From £18 for 2 hours.
An Art Café Session is a self-guided and free-flow booking where you can create and play freely using our supplies.
Instead of ordering food or drinks, you choose art materials and settle in for a couple of hours of open, unstructured making. It’s for slowing down, switching off, and making something for the joy of it.

How an art café sessions works
Step 1Book a time slot
Book a slot for our art café session at one of our London studios where you’ll have 2 hours to create freely. No need to bring anything.
Step 2Arrive & settle in
Your host will welcome you in, show you around, and bring you tea, coffee and biscuits to make you feel at home.
Step 3Choose your medium
Supplies for watercolour, charcoal, and pastels are included or upgrade to another medium. Browse our art books for inspiration.
Step 4Create freely
This is where the magic happens. You can experiment freely, mix mediums, change your mind halfway through, or start again.
Step 5Relax & unwind
Some people chat, some people quietly focus, some people forget to check their phones for two whole hours… and that’s the beauty of it!
Step 6Take your masterpiece home
Leave with your piece and a relaxed mind. Feel proud to have made something with your hands and without pressure.
This is for you if…
You want to switch off and do something hands-on.
You haven’t done art in years (or ever).
You’re looking for a relaxed date or catch-up.
You want solo time without screens.
