Asney Art and Craft Workshops, Walton

At Asney we offer a variety of weekly classes as well as occasional all day workshops.
We have a lovely purpose built studio set in a quiet leafy corner, half a mile off the main road in Walton. Parking is good and there is a peaceful garden and interesting buildings to use as inspiration and to work in.

The facilities include a pottery kiln, a relief printing press for woodcuts etc. There are easels for indoor and outdoor painting and sketching. We can provide basic materials such as clay, paper and paint. There is also a helpful library of books and pictures.
The teaching at Asney and Glastonbury Abbey will be done by Caroline Hayles (BA Hons Fine Art & Teachers Cert.) who has taught a wide range of ages and standards in unusual locations! For her the important thing is for everybody to enjoy creativity for its own sake however skilful the end result.
