Hovingham Village Hall
Hovingham village Hall is a clean, bright, well lit and well appointed, warm and spacious village hall and is ideal for our workshop. There is a large kitchen with all the facilities, toilets etc, modern folding tables etc and comfortable chairs for use during the workshop - plenty of room to spread out and thoroughly enjoy your day in comfortable surroundings. 

There is ample parking space at the village hall and with plenty of on street parking close to the village hall too (which is free), there is plenty of space for everyone.

Lunch
Lunch is not included in this workshop so please bring your own packed lunch if you wish.

However, there are several great choices for food in the village if you dont want to bring your own. The local Hovingham Bakery a short walk away from the hall, has a wide range of great sandwiches and cakes to choose from. There is a great tea shop adjacent to the village hall, The Hovingham Inn or the Worsley Arms are close also if you want to have a sit down meal - but be mindful of the time! The village store (again close to Hovingham Village Hall) also has a range of snacks and food items to choose from too. Plenty of choices!

What is provided

There may be some photogrphic references of cornfields for you to use as top quality A4 photographic references to work from and use during the course of the workshop only. They cannot be taken away. You are better bringing your own as they are yours and you know your area and your photographs are personal to you.

Tea, coffee and buscuits (included) provided throughout the workshop.

What you need to bring to the workshop.

Essential: Fixative - any brand
Your own hard and soft pastels
A drawing board (to fit the sizes of paper you choose to work on)
Highly recommended - Sennelier Le carte, Clairefontaine pastelmat 350gsm, Canson Mi-Tientes 'Touch' 350gsm, Fisher 500 etc - the larger the better for expressive mark making!
Please note: Thinner pastel papers don't hold pastel so well, the heavier weight pastel papers are better to work on for the workshop
Masking tape,
Bulldog clips,
An easel - table or upright
If you are a messy worker (a bit like me I guess) then please do bring a dust sheet for your working area.

Please bring your own packed lunch as lunch is not provided during the workshop. 
You may wish to buy samdwiches and cakes from the local bakery close by in the village instead.
