Tote bag printing, Squire and Partners.


"I had never experienced a design workshop before and thought the tote bag class would be a fun way to spend my afternoon. The class was very mixed in ability from newbies like me, to those who are in the design industry. Samantha facilitates the creative space well by sharing interesting print principles and supporting you through the learning process. By the end of the workshop I was proudly sporting a unique, one off tote bag that I've continued to use on my travels." 
Crystal Small, workshop attendee.

 Scrunchie workshop

Scrunchie design workshop, Affordable Art Fair.


"I attended a design your own scrunchie workshop with Samantha at the Affordable Art Fair which was so much fun! It was well organised with lots of materials and ideas available. It was a nice, relaxed and fun atmosphere and Samantha was very friendly and helpful throughout. I went home with a scrunchie I designed and made by myself which I love! Highly recommend." 
Alice Clark, workshop attendee.

 

"A really fun way to turn your doodles into an accessory. Friendly atmosphere and great for socialising. Great to see all ages and artistic abilities creating together." ArtistAna Maria Lima Dimitrijevic.

"Samantha designed and ran a brilliant ‘print your own retro poster’ workshop at a museum late at London Transport Museum. Samantha worked really flexibly with the museum’s collection as inspiration, was professional and thoughtful throughout the workshop development and delivery, and created a really visually appealing and popular session for our visitors." Molly Barker, Learning Officer, London Transport Museum.

Croydon collage workshop East Croydon Cool

Postcard collage workshop, East Croydon Cool. 


"When I first approached Samantha, I had a vague idea in mind for a creative workshop at our Winter Party but she took this concept to another level. As well as being a lot of fun, her postcard collage sessions demonstrated how creativity can be used to explore everyday issues in local communities. Setting the tone for an activity like this within a party setting isn't easy, but she struck the perfect balance between supporting guests as they got involved whilst ensuring they had the freedom to express their ideas. Samantha is incredibly professional, well organised and understands how to leverage creativity for strategic goals." Maddy Duxbury, Founder of East Croydon Cool.
