Art Play London was founded by Silva Castellani in 2018, starting in galleries such as Phillips, and pop up venues around London.

Art Play is now a new art studio which opened in East London in February 2022, where children and adults of all ages are free to release their imaginations and inner creativity.

Art Play has a strong focus and the environment and aims to educate children and adults on their environmental impact through art, using a variety of sustainable mediums and materials.

Art Play is part of the worldwide Precious Plastic community which means it will be a plastic collection point for people to drop off their HDPE plastic which would otherwise end up in landfills or the ocean. The plastic is then shredding and melted and turned into useful objects and pieces of art, such as plant pots and coasters.

Helen Parker Mar 2024


The most relaxing afternoon I’ve spent in a long time with just my husband and me, doing an unguided painting session. Very friendly place, and all materials were provided, including aprons. Classes were going on at other tables but we were left in peace, having a wonderful time with our pictures which we will finish at home! Absolutely brilliant idea and we will definitely be back, hopefully soon!

Painting class review by Helen Parker - London

Vastiana Belfon Mar 2024


Thoroughly enjoyed the class. Elena is the perfect mixture of teaching, empathy, and enjoyment. Loved the session and am re-determined to further explore my creativity (even though I might not hang my finished product in the Tate!).

Elza Eliza Rozenberga Mar 2024


A wonderful experience where I got to learn a lot, the people were lovely, and I ended up with exactly what I wanted! Now I have a piece of jewelry that I’ll use for life.

Samuel Pidgen Mar 2024


The class was good fun, we had a great teacher, I would recommend this class.

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


It wasn’t clear where we should go when we arrived - there was no clear check-in and no one greeting us. We found someone and they figured it out for us.

But once we got set-up and started our teacher was great, so helpful and friendly and fun! Really enjoyed making our boob pots.

The place had a great energy of being buzzing and social but not too loud or busy.

I would just say that the vegetarian pizza was very greasy and I don’t think it was clear what it was when I ordered - I thought it would have some vegetables but it was just a 4 cheese sort of thing :(But the sourdough base was still good.

Emma Mar 2024


What can I say what a fantastic graffiti session. All of the home educating children had so much fun thank you so much.

Painting class review by Emma - London

Alexandra E Armacost Mar 2024


I attended the terrarium making class as a birthday present for a friend. Our instructor, Kai, was very knowledgeable and patient with the class. I really appreciated that he adding a learning aspect to the class instead of purely 'design'. I would 100% take another terrarium making class.

Laura Mar 2024


My sister and I did this silver ring making course for her birthday.

Can’t rate Sam highly enough, we actually want to see what other courses he teaches as he was such a lovely guy and made the whole evening fun and easily explained all the steps.

Venue was super easy to find, slap bang in the middle of Spitalfields Market, can’t miss it. It was our first time there and we were really impressed with all the other classes but also that you could just come in and buy a canvas and paint on it.

Sharon Shvaifel Mar 2024


Sam was absolutely exceptional. Held the class really well and we made some fantastic rings as a result and had a great time!

Adrian Mar 2024


What an amazing class! Sara taught us everything we needed to know and let us create unique pieces of jewelry. I was so impressed by the experience that I am ready to book another. I absolutely loved every minute and would highly recommend. Thank you, Sara

Lisa Montgomery Mar 2024


Kai was an amazing tutor. The event was well run, fun and informative. Loved our finished terrarium

Lili McKellar Mar 2024


We did the terrarium making class for my Mum’s birthday and we had the best time. The class was very calm, interesting and therapeutic.
Kai was very friendly, intelligent and provided loads of materials for us to use so we got the best out of the class.
I would recommend this class to anyone!

Josh McLatchie Mar 2024


Was looking for an entry into painting and thought learning to draw would be a good start. I’d looked at heaps of other courses, a lot that were MUCH more expensive and didn’t have the same welcoming environment that art play had, so it seemed a no brainer for someone who had just moved to London and was looking for ways to have a creative outlet and meet some new people.
Had an absolute blast and always felt super energised for the week afterwards.
Also genuinely excited to keep drawing and learning new techniques now that i know where to start!

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Went there with a friend to have a fun time doing collage. It was very nice, but the place does get quite noisy (so we both used our headphones). The material provided was great. It was overall a great experience.

Maliha Barry Mar 2024


No occasion
I just booked and walked In. It was free flow and I loved how I just unwind myself. It was value for money and I'm gonna come reg for more sessions.

Vicky Mar 2024


The location and concept is fantastic. Loved the fun, experimental vibe of the class itself and the instructor was friendly and enthusiastic. However, the quality of the art supplies wasn’t great and the colour options of ink for the marbling was very limited. I feel like the end product from the class was poor quality because of this. Good fun but a little basic.

Emelie Isaksen Mar 2024


Had an incredibly wonderful afternoon! All staff were welcoming and Jess who led the candle making workshop was funny, warm and pedagogic - would recommend the Art Play space and their workshops to anyone!

Lucie Mahe Mar 2024


Had a lot of fun painting (and drinking)! Will be back to try the other activities :)

Ashley Hurd Mar 2024


Great time, fun with a great teacher leading us through and painting to take - will come again

Adam O'Riley Mar 2024


I took my partner to the terrarium building class and we both enjoyed the session. The teacher was calm knowledgeable and used constructive, encouraging words.

I would definitely recommend going to this class.

Terrarium class review by Adam O'Riley - London

Kyren Whymes Mar 2024


The teacher/staff member was very informative at the beginning. The venue was nice, relaxed atmosphere. There was plenty of materials however some paints needed restocking. I did enjoy the freedom, as we were just left to get on with whatever we desired to paint. So a good experience overall.

Unguided Free Flow Painting Workshop review by Kyren Whymes - London

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Everything was great! The venue was crowded and full of life, but definitely not in a bad way. Me and my boyfriend had enough space and enough privacy. The materials given were also great but the easel can be a tad wobbly and i felt like we lacked a tiny brush for details. Be aware that is quite fast-paced with not enough time to stop and chat around! The teacher’s instructions were clear enough and she was lovely, the only thing is that she could have given us some more pointers to improve but she was too kind and praising everyone’s work. Overall was a memorable experience

Tanjeem Chowdhury Mar 2024


Straightforward, fun and anyone can do it. Teacher was great and very helpful and I'd definitely recommend it.

Stephanie Colairo Mar 2024


It was really great fun! The atmosphere was amazing and our teacher was super helpful. I’d definitely go back!

Vanessa Roth Mar 2024


Jess was great. Really kind and easy going teacher. She was there when you needed her and let you do what you wanted to do for the rest of the time. Perfect.
The space was nicely prepared and all staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I had a stellar time.

Sophie Frattini Mar 2024

2 ClassBento workshops attended


Really enjoyed! Very cool technique. It s good to bring paper bags before going to bring back home your art!

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Me & my friends booked one hand pottery class as a fun and stress-free activity. It was really fun! Big shoutouts to the instructor (I’m really sorry I couldn’t catch the name but I believe it’s near the name Sosa, really sorry if it’s not right). The venue itself was nice and cozy, everyone there was welcoming and sweet! We’re not really good with hand pottery but the class was amazing in giving us tips and tricks on how to achieve certain shapes!

If me and my friends plan on doing another session in the future I’ll be sure to check out the classes you guys have to try new things!

Thank you for the fun experience!

Monica Nahar Mar 2024


Allowed to get on with the session as we pleased, comfortable space to get creative

Stephanie Afful Mar 2024


My friend and I had booked for sip
and paint. We did not think the staff were very attentive. When I walked in we were not advised where to sit and hang our coat. There was not a full introduction and no one could hear the person who was guiding us.

Justine Mar 2024


We had a lovely time! The music is a great addition to the usual free flow concept

Akayla Newton Mar 2024


Had an
Amazing time, would 100% recommend
Planning to go back and try other classes

Fosca Majnoni d'Intignano Mar 2024


Art Play was a perfect winding down, after-work Friday night session with a friend from work. Ordered a pizza, had cocktails, painted for hours - was super chill and fun.
Dawn at the bar was super welcoming and friendly.

Painting class review by Fosca Majnoni d'Intignano - London

Charelle Myers Mar 2024


Our teacher was amazing, she was so helpful and friendly. Have recommended to so many friends already.

Elissa Burns Mar 2024


Very fun atmosphere on a Thursday evening! Staff were incredibly helpful, I will definitely be back

Holly M Louth Mar 2024


Amazing class and Sophia is so lovely and makes a super chilled and relaxed environment!

Antonia Graham Mar 2024


We loved the candle making class. Olivia was welcoming and friendly. She explained everything really clearly. There was a wide range of choices for the smells of the candle and decorations. It was a fun and friendly atmosphere and we had a great time. Thank you!

Stacey James-Thong Mar 2024


Myself and a friend attended the session. The teacher was great, she was friendly and approachable. We used clay to make an object of our choice. The teacher showed us how to make a pot but we chose to make a highland cow and were given more clay when needed. It was a relaxed, friendly beginners class and we had a great time. Would definitely go back.

Pottery class review by Stacey James-Thong - London

Sheena Mar 2024


Booked the workshop for a Hen do and it didn’t not disappoint! The instructor was so lovely and accommodating on the day. We got to make some beautiful pieces to take home with us. It was a really fun class and the Art Play location is great too! I would most definitely recommend this class - I’m considering going again

Jewellery Making class review by Sheena - London

Tilli Mar 2024


Sofia was very patient, and super helpful with suggestions on how to get to what we wanted our art to look like! Was easy to follow, and lots of directions, without feeling too serious. Learnt much more than we expected to, was fun and educational. The prosecco was topped up as much as we could have possibly wanted.

Sip and Paint Class review by Tilli - London

Julie Mar 2024


We had great fun at candle making workshop. Olivia was amazing very informative and lots of fun.

Lots of interesting scents and nice decorations

Thanks Olivia! X

Sasha Mar 2024


It’s a fun day out activity. I really enjoyed my time getting creative and painting with my sister. Staff are friendly. I’d like to go back and paint more!

Jordanne Wynands Mar 2024


Brought my sister with me this time and we really enjoyed our free flow painting with some cocktails/beers! Friendly staff too :)

Aamie S Patel Mar 2024


Lovely venue, good availability of drinks and food. We had Sorcha as our teacher for pottery making, who was great and made it easy to learn!

Gabi Alonso Mar 2024


Great class! The teacher was so helpful and patient. She really enhanced the experience. The venue was beautiful and inspiring.

Sip and Paint Class review by Gabi Alonso - London

Hugo Ferreira Mar 2024


Brilliant Class! Loved the experience itself and such a cool way to spend time with friends

Meg Dupont Mar 2024


We went for a birthday, and it was great fun, Sammy was helpful and hilarious, making the whole experience 10 times better. The rings we made are beautiful, and are chunky enough to not be too fragile or wreck-able.

Hugo Alexander Torres Mar 2024


Good Class. Nice environment. Learned a new skill and it was a lot of fun!

Katharina Bergerhoff Mar 2024


This was a birthday present from my friends to me and I really enjoyed it :) Sam the teacher was fun (and funny) and the rings we made were nice. I definitely recommend this class if you have never done any jewellery making before as your first foray into it.

Nicole Ip Mar 2024


fantastic atmosphere we enjoyed our time and will definitely revisit this place, highly recommend especially for art lovers

Lauren Benson Mar 2024


We organised a sip & paint class as a work event. Our teacher, Sofia, was brilliant. Very skilled, patient and funny. The venue was a great location. It was good value for money. Everyone loved it. Martia (it was her first day and you wouldn’t have known it!) was super friendly and helpful. We all had the best time and would recommend this as a event for large groups who want to get together, experience something new and have fun! Also, the pizza was great!

Sip and Paint Class review by Lauren Benson - London

Joshua Simmons Mar 2024


Amazing session, we really enjoyed our evening! The session is really fun and informative and was well-run! Added bonus that you have a permanent momento of the evening, would highly recommend!

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


So much fun!
Teacher was fab and we love our rings.
Really informative and easy to follow instructions

Maddie Rafferty Mar 2024


We had such a great time! Everything was so clearly taught and fell really safe using all of the tools :) we love our rings

Ieva Smirnovaite Mar 2024

Astha Malik Mar 2024


The instructor was really good. It was a fun and therapeutic experience. Would highly recommend.

Heather Mar 2024

Painting class review by Heather - London

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


We had such a fab time on our ring making workshop with such a lovely teacher, and we are so happy with the final product! Thank you!

Anakaren Mar 2024


We had the best time! What a fun and recreational experience, would definitely do it again :)
Staff could have been a bit more helpful with setting up, we had to keep getting up to get materials we only realized we needed as we started

Teacher's response

Dear Anakaren, Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you had a great time and would love to have you back.

Regarding the setup process, please note that this class is self-serve and unguided. Nonetheless, we'll take your feedback onboard to improve this aspect.

Looking forward to seeing you again soon!

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


This session was okay, we had to do everything ourselves which was fine but the environment was a bit grubby and loud. There was a bit of banging on the tables which made it hard to paint. The pots we were given looked like air dry clay and one of the other girls pots broke as she was painting it. So I think it could gave been made clearer that it was air dry clay with acrylic paints and no glaze, with little option to glaze afterwards. We just had to wait for our pots to dry and carry them home in paper bags.

Having said all that, it was a £5 class so couldn't expect too much. But maybe in future they could make sure the paintbrushes weren't all hard and dirty and that the pots were of sufficient quality. So you know what you're getting yourself into. Even if we paid a bit more, I would so that it could go back into the space and utensils/paint.

Unguided Pottery Painting Upcycling Workshop review by Anonymised ClassBento student - London

Teacher's response

Hi!

Thank you for your feedback on your recent pottery session. We apologize for any confusion regarding the materials used. Please note that we exclusively utilize air-dry clay, as clearly stated on our website, and do not offer glazing. Additionally, this workshop is unguided as advertised. We appreciate your suggestions for improvement and will address the concerns raised about the environment and material quality. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future.

Georgia Blake Mar 2024


our teacher was really lovely and welcoming! explained everything so well.
i think it was very good value for money, and i was only expecting to make one candle each but it was nice that we got to make a smaller one

Teacher's response

Thank you for your wonderful review, Georgia! We're delighted that you found our teacher welcoming and enjoyed the candle-making experience. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again soon!

Kirsty Fussell Mar 2024


We had such a great time here on our date, something different… have already recomended it to friends!

Teacher's response

Dear Kirsty, Thank you for sharing your positive experience! We're thrilled you enjoyed your date with us and appreciate the recommendation to your friends. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

Marie Curtis Mar 2024


A fantastic workshop with Sophie. She was passionate, informative and so encouraging. Officially fab event, book it!

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Free flowing paint, everything was great, many paints and brushes to choose from, but the space quite compact

Adrian Telford Mar 2024


We attended a terrarium workshop
On the staruday 16th
Our teacher was friendly engaging and explained things well.
I have never made a terrarium before but based on my experience I would definitely be back to do it again.
I especially like the fact that all materials were provided for the class and you get to take home your terrarium.

Lee Nissim Mar 2024


Booked 8 places for a birthday and the event was great fun! Our teacher Jess was brilliant and we all had a fab time!

Tate Mar 2024


Excellent date night, very fun and extremely friendly staff. Would definitely recommend to couples and families

Alisha Chundunsing Mar 2024


It was really fun and relaxing. It had a great chilled vibe, however service could have been a little better. Everyone seemed so busy and it was difficult to get someone's full attention when help was needed

Kathleen Halloran Mar 2024


The class was amazing! Aija and Dawn were super welcoming, and we had a fab time listening to music and painting. Would definitely come to more of their classes.

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Very fun class, materials provided were of good quality and the teacher talked us through building a terrarium. We learned how to look after them.
The venue was lively and full of personality with a cool bar.
To improve, maybe teach us the history of terrariums and include ice breaker exercises for the class to become familiar with each other.

Bethan Reen Mar 2024


Great team building activity for my work team, simple and easy to follow and suitable for all levels of ability, our teacher Sophie was very helpful

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024

great session for the family to paint freely
we had lots of fun painting
would have been perfect if the bags where available to carry the painting home

Nadine Law Mar 2024


Fun session and the teacher was great. Enjoyable to have a couple of glasses of wine during the class and speak with the other participants. We were able to collect the finished pieces an hour or so after the class. Would recommend for any age group, light hearted and a nice way to spend some time.

Elisete Lourenco Mar 2024


Great vibes! I would definitively be back for another activity, or to do again some paintings or to try pottery. Very well priced activity

Jaime Mar 2024


Really enjoyed terrarium making for my birthday. The instructor was friendly and gave us lots of information about caring for our terrarium.

Marianne Mar 2024

4 ClassBento workshops attended


This is the 2nd activity we have attended and we were a little bit dissappointed. The time of the original class was changed and we couldn't make the new time so they moved us to a later class. When we got there it wasn't the same abstract art class as we had originally booked. The teacher agreed we could do our own thing but as it was a large class and she was giving instructions, we were left to our own devices. None of us have ever done art so we ended up helping each other out as she was busy. That said, as we have been friends a long time and there were 5 of us in the group we made the best of it, ended up with some impressive art work and had a good laugh along the way.

Navampreet Singh Mar 2024


Sophia was lovely and taught us a lot, a large range of scents and decorative pieces to choose from, highly recommend!

Enoh Mar 2024


Sophie was great! Very informative and a lovely workshop.
Learnt about the differences in fragrance oil and essential oil, why different waxes are used and wicks.
Best of all we made two candles, one in a glass vessel and one in a pop out mould.

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


I made a nice necklace using a mould and the blow torch part was fun.

Leila Boulden Mar 2024

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


This was such a lovely class to attend on mother's day. Thomas did a great job of welcoming everyone, teaching some introductory pottery skills and making the class feel fun and relaxed. I would definitely recommend it and I hope to try another class in the future.

Really well planned and teacher was great. Jess made it personable and fun. A lovely event for mothers day.

Damar Levy Mar 2024


You didn’t have any bags to take our paintings which was really annoying and inconvenient.

Yuner Chen Mar 2024


I love what we made.
Teachers are helpful and passionate.
It is a great experience to be there

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Thomas was very nice and welcoming. Materials was good and length of time was perfect

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


It was my husband’s birthday and we decided to do a couple thingy. The staff at the venue were very helpful. We had drinks which made the session enjoyable. It was unguided freeflow painting, we had no background of painting but still enjoyed ourselves

Deloreen Mar 2024


ArtPlay - Enjoyable experience of unguided free flow painting workshop. 1. Good online booking process, 2. Bright and well equipped studio style venue with street level access - no stairs, inside Old Spitalfields market, close to the Flying Tiger store, 3. Friendly welcome and helpful tour from Olivia, 4. Ample tables for groups or individuals and bar area with hot and cold beverages. 5. Pizza's available to order via the booking process, 6. Additional resources available e.g. collage materials, reference books, painted canvas boards with designs. 7. Good atmopshere with low music in background, 8. Two hour slot sufficient to produce an A3 size Acrylic painting/collage etc on Canvas. 9. Overall, a relaxed and pleasant experience for creating, exploring and experimenting with paints and crafts. Would attend again!

Anita Sanders Mar 2024


The sip and paint class was a lot of fun and the teacher was most professional and guided us along the way. Also made the class very enjoyable.

Sip and Paint Class review by Anita Sanders - London

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


I hadn't painted since I was 14 years old (a long time ago now) so was a bit apprehensive, but the teacher was excellent, took us through creating the painting stage by stage and I was quite proud with how it turned out! Many thanks

Judy Galibardy Mar 2024


Love every minute of the class. Want to do it every week.
Will try an Abstract art next.

Camelia Feldman Mar 2024


Thomas was very supportive. I enjoyed his class. I was few times to this venue for different workshops and I can say that I like very much.

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Fun outing for Mother’s Day making candles with my daughter. I’m looking forward to picking them up and enjoying them at home. Useful to know the basics of candle making for the future too.

Candle Making Workshop review by Anonymised ClassBento student - London

Liya Gao Mar 2024


I like the atmosphere there. All the participants were deeply involved in their works. The teacher gave me good suggestion when I need her help. The class definitely deserves the money.

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Really enjoyed the experience and great location.
However if you sitting at the end it can be hard to hear what the teacher is saying and there is not enough of the rocks that people want to use so you can be stuck just adding whatever is left.

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Came as party of a hen party, did the free flow class slot. Was a good laugh seeing what everyone came up with! Believe it or not but the 2hr slot is a little tight for time in order to actually finish a painting but we still had a blast! Some of the quality of the paintbrushes could be improved.

Reena Tailor Mar 2024


Christmas present with a friend, really good class explains how and why we add everything. Very therapeutic, a great teacher very helpful and engaging! Thank you!

Terrarium class review by Reena Tailor - London

Angele Chevalier Mar 2024


Sophie was super helpful and we had good fun with a lovely terrarium at the end

Parul Mar 2024


My friend and I did the Silver Jewellery Workshop with Sara.
She was a very good teacher and very patient with us.
We were provided with all the materials and we learnt new skills regarding making silver jewellery, particularly enjoyed setting fire to our silver clay!
Would highly recommend the class as we left with lovely silver pendants on a chain.
Would do the class again and maybe make matching earrings.

Lizzy Cowing Mar 2024


Mother’s Day candle making.
Sophie was really friendly and had lots of great tips for making candles at home too.
Loads of different scents and decorative materials given to us to use.
Everyone got to take one normal sized candle home, as well as a smaller mould candle.
My mum and I both had a great time and are interested in booking more events at the venue.

Damilola Odusote Mar 2024


The teacher was very knowledgeable
All materials were provided
We loved the scents
We made 2 candles
We got to be as creative as we liked

Oby Bamidele Mar 2024


Had an excellent time. Class instructor was very friendly and helpful. Great value for money. Great class size. I will definitely recommend.

Katia Mar 2024


Loved the class. Thanks to Anna, our teacher, it was a joy to paint under her guidance.

Darren Barker Mar 2024


Hi we really enjoyed the candle making class, the teacher was very fun and helpful. The venue was excellent

Rebecca Mar 2024


It wasn’t bottomless prosecco as advertised. We were given one bottle between 4 people! It was also very hard to hear and see what the instructor was doing because there was too many people crammed into a small space

Ahmed Shehata Mar 2024


Class was great fun! The activity was very nice and a different experience to connect with each other. The teacher was awesome!

Liou Bian Mar 2024


Very enjoyable and fulfilling activity and nice guidance by Aija. Would love to do it again.

Jane Mac Mar 2024


Wish the brushes were better and we had more time to finish, but had so much fun!

Callum Arnold Mar 2024


Very noisy for the guided sessions would be better if it was away from the main crowd. More time to consider everyone's questions would be more beneficial

Zahra Mar 2024


Had such a lovely class with Olivia. We had a good balance of being guided and putting our own creativity into the class.

Hand Building Pottery Class review by Zahra - London

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Teacher was lovely, the workshop was good fun, venue was in the heart of Spitalfields.

Ranga Rao Nippani Mar 2024


Lovely workshop, nice setting, learnt a lot. Sophie is a great teacher! Built my first Terrarium

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Great way to spend an evening with friends free painting while enjoying music, drinks and pizza!
All materials are provided but you’re free to paint whatever you like, and free your creativity. The music was fantastic, and the pizza delicious!

Melanie Morris Mar 2024


lovely birthday treat - easy to follow - the artist was very encouraging - a great 2 hours for someone who has never painted, to achieve something

Daisy Church Mar 2024


We all loved the session and are thinking about all coming back to paint them! It was a good amount of time to feel accomplished with my finished piece!

When making the bowl, it would be good to know from then that the coil bowl would then be the thing we would take home. I think some people found it unclear that we wouldn't all be making the same thing from the coils.

It would be good to get a range of toils from the start (like the more detailed toils)

We all really loved the class and look forward to collecting our works

Ellie Mar 2024


Went as a belated birthday present and it was a lovely evening. Jenna was so welcoming and very clear with her instructions. We had the choice of three types of texture but each came out differently due to everyone’s different strength / technique, so it was so lovely to walk away with something totally unique!

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


The ring making was a great experience with a very friendly and knowledgeable teacher - thanks Denna!

Kate Mar 2024


We had an unguided pottery painting session but the all staff were very welcoming and kind! The venue was very clean and well laid out with easy access to all the paints and brushes.
The atmosphere was very nice and relaxed and having the options to buy a bottle of Prosecco is a fantastic idea! I wasn’t aware it was upcycled pottery which I believe made the experience better! The whole price was £5, we couldn’t believe it, we will definitely be returning again, fantastic experience!

Yeoun Joo Lee Mar 2024


the teacher was so fun to work with, so nice, personable, and very helpful!
All the stuffs and other people in the other classes were also very friendly and chill vibe! My boyfriend and I had a great experience and would totally do it again!

Tracey Elliott Mar 2024


A really lovely evening. Great venue, welcoming staff and cocktails. Will book again. Highly recommend.

Gillian Bryan Mar 2024


I had a wonderful time in class with Sorcha today - she is a super, patient and enthusiastic teacher, and I enjoyed every minute. I learned a lot about the clay and how to handle it, and I can't wait to do it again!
Thank you for a lovely time, Sorcha!

Unguided Free Flow Painting Workshop review by Anonymised ClassBento student - London

Kalu Joao Mar 2024


I recently had the pleasure of attending a painting class at ARtplay.

First off, I want to give a huge shoutout to Alice and Damien for their exceptional service. Even though I was running late, they were incredibly understanding and accommodating. Their friendly and welcoming attitude really made me feel at ease.
A solid 10/10.

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


Had a great experience at the self guided painting class. Honestly was such an uplift that supported my femininity and I love it. Only thing I would suggest is giving some space between chairs and tables. But it was amazing no complaints about the equipment or canvas offered to us etc.
I will definitely do this again and take my sister with me.

Unguided Free Flow Painting Workshop review by Anonymised ClassBento student - London

Lisa Goldwater Mar 2024


Great atmosphere at a lovely welcoming venueI came with a couple of friends having walked past a few weeks ago. The teacher Eleanor was friendly and put everyone at ease. Although there was structure to the painting we were advised that we could change some elements, for example colour, and how we could use this to contrast or use harmonious colours. The demonstration was very clear and completing the painting within the allocated time was realistic. We were provided with acrylic paints and different size brushes and were told how we could adapt to suit our own preference, ie using heavy bodied acrylic paint for texture.
We all had a very enjoyable time and I will certainly be booking more classes. Thankyou

Sober Sip and Paint Class review by Lisa Goldwater - London

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


the session was so therapeutic I definitely recommend to anyone who wants to attend 10/10

Jessica Murray Mar 2024


We had a lovely time at the guided painting class - the setting was great, lots of paint, a nice touch of berets and a glass of prosecco!
We had a really enjoyable time, although the teaching was quite minimal. For example, the majority of the class was "put some blue here, now add some white here" rather than teaching any painting techniques, how to blend the colours, how to look for highlights and shadows etc.

Rose Smith Mar 2024


Bought as a Christmas present we had such a wonderful time. We will definitely be visiting Art play again soon. Sophie who taught our class was lovely and very helpful. 10/10

Isabel Okeke Mar 2024

Sarah Sloman Mar 2024


Everything was provided, we didn't have to pay any extra. My friend and I had a great time and we were really pleased with the projects that we made. The venue was fantastic, we were able to buy drinks (including wine). I would recommend this to anyone no art skills needed!

Lizzie Zrada Mar 2024


Great value for money, staff and venue were lovely and we had such a good time for my friends birthday! Will definitely come back

Anonymised ClassBento student Mar 2024


I booked an unguided free flow painting workshop for my partner and I as a birthday surprise activity and had a lovely time there! :) they checked our booking, gave us our canvases, showed us where everything was, we picked where to sit and we were good to go! Only downside was we were 30 mins late for our booking slot as we got lost looking for the place from the train station. We followed the address google gave us but it was the wrong one, luckily we checked the address here on the website instead and finally found the place.

Other than that, overall, it was a really great experience for the both of us! Would definitely recommend to my friends and might come back to book for another activity in the future :)

Ifna Mar 2024


I went with some friends just to do a nice activity after work, and although the venue was small it did not affect the experience at all. I stayed on the freeflow part and it was great just using my creativity, buying drinks, and having fun while listening to some Afrobeats.

Everyone was super nice and friendly as well, from staff to people who participated, so it was a fun experience.

Lisa Megaw Mar 2024


Great space, atmosphere and class. Really inclusive x Will return x
Thank you very much

Kim Ravier Feb 2024


Just completed the 6 week acrylic painting class course with Simon.
It was an amazing experience, we covered the basics of different techniques which all came together on our last day to make a final piece. Would be appropriate for super beginner to someone wanting to perfect their technique.
Simon was amazing! He was super helpful, kind and explained everything in a really clear but fun way.
Would 100% recommend

Good session, we had an unguided free flow painting session. Staff were quite flexible and accommodating.

Millie Mason Feb 2024


Love this class. Making my own mini ecosystem was really awesome. So many workshops going on around us. It was pretty awesome

Kusum Pun Marjara Feb 2024


The venue is great love that it’s surrounded by the market
The materials I feel were a little dissapointing. Not enough colours / variety of paint and other mediums like water pencils, pastels
The space is wonderful loved the vibe, the music and location
Really looking forward to going back

Millie Mason Feb 2024


I've become addicted to this place - and my artistic skills are definitely improving Fantastic class and staff ad usual and tried the hot choc which was delish

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024

Sip and Paint Class review by Adrian - London

Layla Shire Feb 2024


Materials were great, vibe was cool and I’m definitely happy with my artwork! I would definitely rebook - the only issue was the music kept cutting out.

Sophie Feb 2024


We booked this experience for a hen do! We really loved it once we got going, but when we turned up the venue was unprepared for our group, with no easels, paints or canvasses laid out and the staff seemed a tad confused by our arrival, despite having booked months in advance. But once we did get started, as we were delayed a tad by this process, we had a really nice time!

Grace Kingsbury Feb 2024


Sam was a really engaging, friendly and funny teacher. He helped everyone without any rushing and even though there are pauses whilst everyone catches up with each step, it never felt slow paced or boring.
Note - there are 3 options for design / texture and you can’t pick different widths of band.
Would definitely recommend this class for a fun afternoon with your friends.

Jewellery Making class review by Grace Kingsbury - London

Happy I could take candles the same day

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


Took someone here on a first date. Took the unguided session. The vibes were perfect. The hip hop, r&b set the DJs was playing, the atmosphere. The art materials. Truly a great way to connect as well as have fun. Very much good value for money

Jade Olivo Feb 2024


Aija was a super informative host and explained each step of the terrarium making class so we can learn why each step was important - helpful if we want to try at home!
She was really engaged and helpful :)
The class was lots of fun and had a wonderful terrarium to take home with us at the end which we loved. Good amount of people in the class, not too busy! Although bit disjointed with the extra table on the side.
Would recommend :D

Ema Blue Feb 2024


Friday was too much fun! I came with a group of 6. We had spacious tables, pizza, music, drinks (margaritas are good here). The painting part was good too. It's free style which I like and the resources we're great!

Rachel Kobe Feb 2024


I came to Art Play for the first time. The girl at the door (sorry I can't remember her name!) Was wonderful and welcomed us in. The music was flowing - the bar was popping and there were lots if choices for Art recourses. Will go to the pottery workshop next!

None of my friends are particularly creative so we didn't know what to expect. But the music and the drinks flowing really helped - staff were cool and the recourses were amazing quality

Usif Amed Feb 2024


Came here with my boys. I haven't done art since school but it really doesn't matter here. The studios got such good energy and got our creative juices flowing

Neringa Feb 2024


It's a lovely place to be. I did unguided free flow canvas painting. I could get all the materials. Only one thing I was a little bit dissatisfied, it were brushes, as very poor quality and looked worn out, and couldn't find different angles brushes. But still managed to do my art work. I used cotton buds I brought from home too.

Jeanine Yu Feb 2024


This is my second painting session and Jess is amazing She explain the primary and secondary colour concept, and the complimentaru coulour.

Jumaimah Begum Feb 2024


Really fun and an enjoyable experience. We did the unguided up-cycling canvas painting class and all we had to do was go in choose which canvas we wanted to paint over choose our paints and start. Very good value for the money as everything is provided and the canvas is large. Would most likely come again.

Aishah Feb 2024


I took my daughter for her first pottery class today and she had the best time. Their teacher, Sorcha, was amazing. She taught them very well and was super friendly. She even let us get involved which was a bonus. I would definitely recommend it. Great location!
Only negative is that there was no initial welcome. We were standing at the wrong entrance for a while, and although the staff could see us, they didn’t inform us and avoided any form of eye contact.

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


Great pottery class for a rainy and grey day to lift your mood! Excellent teacher and have come away with a lovely pot. Thank you!

Zekie Feb 2024


Class is overcrowded, making it difficult to get a good view from anywhere but the front, which means you might miss out on crucial techniques. There are similar-priced classes available with smaller groups, offering a better learning environment.

Dear Zekie, We appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback on your experience. We're sorry to hear that the overcrowding affected your ability to fully engage with the class content. Your comments are important to us, and we will explore ways to address this issue to enhance the learning environment for all participants.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to have the opportunity to offer you a better experience in the future!

The class itself was really fun and the teacher was great! However the organisation and rebooking was very difficult to do. Contacting the teacher, the number provided never had a response the only way to eventually contact was through email replies which took long to organise and made communication difficult.

Teacher's response

Dear valued customer, We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the class and found the teacher to be great! However, we're sorry to hear about the difficulties you experienced with rebooking and communication. Your feedback is important to us, and we will work to improve our organization and communication processes to ensure a smoother experience for all participants.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Edie Walwyn Feb 2024


It was a very pleasant and enjoyable evening! I recommend to anyone who needs to decompress after work.

Cher Fulton Feb 2024


The instructor had her back to us for most of the session so we struggled to follow the guide. Would have been nice to get some tips, especially to better the art. I left mine there as I wasn’t proud of the finished result.

The place was noisy and could barely hear the instructor.

Teacher's response

Dear Cher, We appreciate you sharing your feedback with us regarding your recent class experience. We apologize for any frustration caused by the instructor's positioning and the noise level in the venue. Your feedback is essential for us to improve, and we will take immediate steps to address these concerns to ensure a more conducive learning environment in future sessions.

Thank you for bringing these issues to our attention, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a much-improved experience next time.

Lovely class, had a great time! Our teacher Simon facilitared a great class!
Will definitely be back again!

Claudia Feb 2024


Our teacher Aija, was very welcoming and kind and ensured we had everything we needed for the paintings. She was easy to follow and lovely to have as a guide.

Abin (sorry if this isn’t the correct spelling) assisted on the day and was fantastic, he was very friendly and ensured that we were taken care of!

Amelia Leleu Feb 2024


It was really fun and I had a good time painting. I did this with my dad and we had a really great time. At the beginning, one of the staff members forgot we were there and didn’t give us a canvas and we just sat there for 20 minutes. Lol. In the end we did ask her and she gave us one. She was pretty nice abt it but did kinda make it sound a bit eh. Other than that other staff members were really helpful and kind towards us and gave some art tips.

Jan Hoang Xuan Feb 2024


Attending that painting class for with my wife our anniversary was such a blast! It was our first time trying something like that, and let me tell you, it was awesome. The staff there were super chill and helpful, walking us through everything and making sure we had a blast.

They had loads of materials to choose from, so we could really let our creativity run wild. Plus, the vibe was so laid-back and chill, it felt like we were just hanging out and having fun. It was a nice change of pace from our usual routine, and we absolutely loved it.

We're already talking about checking out some other classes they offer because we had such a great time. Overall, it was a memorable experience that we'll definitely be doing again.

Anna Silins Feb 2024


Great class! Took my brother to the terrarium making class for his birthday and he absolutely loved it! A must for any plant lovers

No occasion. Me and a friend signed up for the unguided free flow canvas painting which was nice something different to do on a Saturday. Venue was nice also.

Amelia Fowler Feb 2024


It was a very fun date afternoon activity, and I would recommend to do with your partner or group of friends!

Hi Amelia, Thank you for taking the time to write this review! We appreciate your recommendation and feedback, and hope to see you again soon!

Zahra Macphail Feb 2024


It was a day out with my daughter and we both enjoyed the art class. Convenient location, cozy facilities, friendly atmosphere. All supplies were provided - we very much liked the little red berets, that helped to create the mood.

Moneeka Thakur Feb 2024


We all had a lovely time and the team at Art Play were great! Thank you!

Kathryn Feb 2024


Really enjoyable course, fun and modern location and the course leader was very nice and helpful

Holly Feb 2024


Great idea and concept, although it's a 'drop in' probably best to come on time as when we arrived they were trying to set up for the class and it felt a little awkward trying to ask the staff for where to sit and find things etc. But other than it was a great time, pizza was excellent and the tunes were banging

Paige Feb 2024


I bought tickets to this class for my friends birthday. When I bought the tickets I didn’t get any confirmation email and when I tried emailing again I didn’t get a reply. Once we got there though everything was great. Staff were nice and the Prosecco was constant. 4/5

Elliot Feb 2024


Sara was a great teacher - fun, really patient and very helpful when we needed help.

Across the 3 hours we moulded, designed sanded, fired and polished our own pieces of silver jewellery (which was either a necklace penetrant or pair of earrings.

Definitely worth doing!

Sabira Feb 2024


I treated my sister to pottery class at Artplay. We we're so excited as it was both our first time. Our teacher, Sorcha was amazing. She helped everyone with her easy tips and advice. All tools are provided, refreshments available inside. Overall it was worth the money, time and experience. I will definitely book again for different classes as they have so much going on!

Jemma Mahey Feb 2024


We loved this class! It was easy to follow and I liked how you could personalize the painting too! Teacher was very helpful and friendly! Venue was great! Would definitely do it again!

Ivy Chan Feb 2024


I had a free flow class which meant we didn’t have a teacher and do our own thing. This was all good but there weren’t many paint brushes available for us as there was a class going on at the same time. Overall, it was a lovely experience for a date activity though!

Aditya Mesta Feb 2024


The venue was excellent, with great staff. It provided a fun experience for my girlfriend and me. We're looking forward to visiting again soon.

Will definitely go back!

Marina Veiga Feb 2024


I booked the Sober Sip and Paint for my SILs hen do and the activity was a massive hit. Most of us were not artsy but managed to create something beautiful with 7 out of 8 of us taking our creations home. Our teacher was Sophia and she was friendly and helpful all the way through out the activity. Since our session was 10.30am to 12.30pm, we were able to leave the canvas there and collect them later which was helpful.

Great class & plenty of scents to pick from! Decorating the candles were especially fun to do

Daveena Thakkar Feb 2024


It was very busy so quite tight with regards to space. Staff were helpful and we enjoyed the experience! I had booked unguided free flow painting and wish there was a wider range of colours to choose from. Many of the bottles were near to empty and tissues/cloths would have been handy.

Diane Wilson Feb 2024


Attended with a friend as we are both interested in making candles. Really enjoyed the session and sophie was brilliant. The content was good relaxing atmosphere and everyone was very friendly. Will definitely be signing up for more classes.

There was no teacher - which I had kind of expected there to be when I booked

Dear Charlotte, We apologize for any confusion. The workshop description states that the class does not include a teacher, but we'll ensure better communication in the future. Thank you for your feedback.

Jewel Feb 2024


My husband and I attended the Sip & Paint Portrait making class on Valentines Day. We really enjoyed the activity, the instructor was very patient and checked in often to make sure everybody was following through whilst also providing the space to follow your own creative instincts. Loved every minute of it & highly recommended :-))

This was so much fun! The teacher was patient and encouraging and we all became more confident. Lovely fun atmosphere and you get to take home your own piece of art.
Friendly bar staff.
An overall great experience for all ages

Elliott Martin Feb 2024


Belated valentines celebration. Really great experience, the teacher was new to the job but she handled the social atmosphere perfectly - nice and relaxed with a perfect level of instructions. The guy at the bar offered amazing service. Materials were great. Very happy and satisfied.

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


It was great. The teacher was amazing and we will def recommend it to friends!

Sean Feb 2024


Went for Valentine’s Day with my partner, only thought we’d be making one candle but we made 2, which was great. Everything was explained well and we had a fun time with the other people in our group, pleasant experience will try art play again!

Candle Making class review by Sean - London

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


The class was really easy to follow and the teacher was engaging. The venue is quite busy, but it wasn’t distracting. I also like that even though it was a guided class, you were still encouraged to use your creative freedom to make your piece unique. You do have to buy a separate bag (£1.50) to transport the piece home in though, so come prepared with a big bag!

Priscilla Tsang Feb 2024


A nice place to do art work with kids and besties ️ come to enjoy with creativity

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


It was a bit too loud & crowded and it was hard to hear the instructions. Overall, it felt a little bit chaotic and disorganised. I guess they need to make smaller groups or get a bigger space for the studio.

Teacher's response

Dear valued customer, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We appreciate your insights and will take them into consideration as we strive to improve our studio experience. We'll explore options like smaller groups or a larger space to ensure a more comfortable environment for everyone.

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


We went to the candle making workshop and it was amazing! Aija was so personable and friendly. She didn’t rush us through the process and provided lots of information and tips. Lots to choose and decorate from, you can really make it your own. Left having a perfect candle and evening.

I booked this experience as a Valentines Day gift for my partner and myself and it was incredible! The venue was intimate and chic, our instructor was brilliant at keeping us engaged, informed and comfortable. She made sure the mood was fun and creative. All materials provided were useful and I would definitely recommend this to others who would be interested in candlemaking.

Anita Ikpea Feb 2024


Valentine’s Day class: very good concept to paint and easy to learn. Would have been nice if we went a little slower and painting techniques were explained in more detail (but understandable due to time constraints). Materials were fine and we were able to request more if needed.

Sahreen Siddiqui Feb 2024


Such a fun activity- will def come again. Enjoyed this with my family.

Lovely atmosphere and such a fun way to relax and make art with no pressure <3

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


We were visiting London for a couple days and I’d booked a range of activities including this. We didn’t have a teacher so it was unguided painting. The staff that served us were really nice and friendly, but seemed a bit unorganised sometimes - some of the instructions weren’t massively clear, so when I went up to ask a question, they would always refer me to someone else and then we’d end up getting a vague response anyway. But they were really sweet. The venue was lovely and big, in a great location. Materials were perfect and good quality, all except from the bag we had to buy to take the canvases home in, which wasn’t big enough for the canvases? We enjoyed it thoroughly and thought it was very good value for money. We loved how our paintings were included in the price and all of the painting inspiration we could choose from. Overall was so so good and I’d absolutely do it again!

Lenard Pratt Feb 2024


Went for Valentine’s Day and we had a blast. The instructor was super helpful and super kind, every step of the way she made sure to ensure that everything was proceeding smoothly and couldn’t stop cracking jokes. I came in not expecting much but for how much we paided I can say I was pleasantaly surprised and if you asked me to go again I would take you up on the offer

Jalebi Jalebi Feb 2024


The evening went really well

Only thing is that at the start we were confused with who to talk to about the booking. Nonetheless the people we spoke to were really lovely and informative

Nicola Guderley Feb 2024


Denna was an amazing teacher/host, very funny. Great memories with my sister and I genuinely love the ring that I made!

A fabulous experience as a novice painter. The teacher was extremely friendly and patient. Thank you

Jordan Feb 2024


I booked this for myself and my boyfriend for his birthday and we both loved it! Sam is a brilliant teacher and made the class very welcoming and a good laugh. We both left the workshop with beautiful rings, having never done anything like this before. Both a great experience and lovely to walk away with something we can both treasure. Would absolutely recommend this workshop!

Adela Feb 2024


Thomas was an excellent teacher. It was very easy and enjoyable to follow his workshop. I enjoy it and hopefully, I will repeat it with him

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


It was a lovely chilled venue that was easy to locate in the market.
We were greeted warmly and given instructions.
I completely understand it’s self led but would have been nice if we had some more information. Also, the range of pottery to up-cycle was really limited and the space to complete quickly became cramped.

Dmitry Nazarenko Feb 2024


Took this class as a couple for Valentine's Day celebrations and loved every minute of it. Sara was a fantastic instructor - very personable, funny, and patient at every step of the process. She made the learning fun and was there to help out at any point if we were struggling or having issues. We ended up making some cute pendants and are looking forwards to wearing and showing them off!

Kristine Feb 2024


The teacher Aija was fantastic. We painted a lovely sunset painting with palm trees in a relaxed environment which was great

Alex Dee Feb 2024


Sam was so brilliant. Knowledgeable, fun, and made sure everyone was supported and happy despite us being a decent size group! We had such a fab evening and the rings are amazing. Highly recommend

Jack Bessell Feb 2024


Very disorganised, felt like we were a burden to the staff

Equipment was good though

Teacher's response

Dear Jack, We're sorry for the disorganization you encountered. Your feedback is noted, and we'll strive to improve. We're glad you found the equipment satisfactory and hope to provide a better experience next time.

accidentally joined our school group (which was free but sold out) and ended up spending 35 pounds per person.

Our class went very well and we came out with amazing rings, all thanks to our teacher Sam, who was so knowledgeable and funny. He made our experience great :)

Rosie Feb 2024


Brilliant class in fab location. Only 3 in the class, which made it a very personalised experience. Good amount of time, working high quality materials, and a fab finished terrarium to take home. They shared lots of tips on caring for and making more terrariums, which I will definitely do!

Carrie Sims Feb 2024


This was a lovely class, very relaxing and enjoyable. The teacher was easy to follow and explained things very well. Felt like good value for money too. Would book again.

Anne Kennedy Feb 2024


Had fun painting and catching up with my friend! We shared a bottle of Prosecco, and enjoyed the atmosphere/music too. We did free flow painting, so no teacher, but all materials are provided. One tip: when you’re choosing what to paint, bear in mind the paint is quite thick/fast drying and I couldn’t find a very good thin brush, so painting thin lines was challenging.

Zhané West Feb 2024


We took the free flow class. The store itself was very busy but the staff were great. We were shown where everything is and truly left to our own devices which was really nice. They did not rush us for our seats or peak over our shoulders to see if we’re any good or not :’) it was a great experience, went down a treat with a bottle of white. We will definitely be back!

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


It’s a guided class, but the teacher only advised everyone to draw his/her own. She is encouraging. I don’t feel I was really guided.

Teacher's response

Dear valued customer, We're sorry to hear that you didn't feel adequately guided during your class. Our aim is to provide clear instruction and support to all participants, and we regret any disappointment you experienced. Your feedback is important to us, and we'll use it to improve our teaching approach to ensure a more fulfilling experience for all students.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us!

Michelle Brown Feb 2024


Thank you Aija for a really relaxed and encouraging workshop. I haven't ever really painted much but had a few hours to myself without the Children and thought it would be a lovely thing to do for me! I wasn't disappointed. Thank you for your thoughtful guidance and your gentle and approachable manner. I enjoyed learning about how to sketch and paint from a reference picture and how to mix paint. It's something I'd definitely recommend!

Susie Huntington Feb 2024


My daughter and I had a fun time in a viby venue. She was maybe a bit old for the class (age 11). Ideal perhaps for 8-10yrs.

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024

2 ClassBento workshops attended


have been looking to be a little more creative this year and so booked this session entirely on a whim just to try something new. the session was unguided but i think it was better that way as i focused less on perfectionism and more on just enjoying painting experience as it happened.
the venue was quite busy on sunday at 3pm and it was a bit unclear that you need to check in at the bar. was let waiting a little while but the staff were friendly and it wasn’t much of an issue - but definitely show up a little early as per recommendations.
the supplies were in pretty good condition and the space was generally tidy and intimate. it was easy enough to find a space to sit as a solo visitor, larger groups may have needed to wait a while or split up. note that there’s no seating by class/session, every visitor will sit in the same main area, so something to be aware of. it’s also fairly noisy when busy, as there’s also music going; if you want to go and totally zone out maybe consider bringing some noise cancelling headphones (which i did)! once finished, i was allowed to leave my painting to dry while i walked around elsewhere, got food, etc., as long as i came back before closing to collect it.
overall i had a really good time, having not picked up a paintbrush since i was in high school it was a treat to relax and paint for a couple of hours, and i’d 100% come back alone or with a friend. for £18 it was well worth the cost, and now i have my very own unique artwork to bring home!

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024

I was given a voucher for the course for my birthday. I was a little apprehensive, but I enjoyed it hugely. The teacher was excellent. Warm friendly and helpful. I learnt half a dozen new techniques and a completely new Of using acrylic paints to create a picture. I would thoroughly recommend it. I will be bringing my granddaughter here for a class for her birthday. I’m sure she will love it too.

Sharleen Cohen Feb 2024


The self guided workshop was good, just stacks of magazines, scissors and glue and off you go! Perfect if you dont collect magazines at home to see whether you like collage and try out some ideas

Sam Feb 2024


Got this class as a gift to my boyfriend for our anniversary! Was a really great class, very engaging and fun with a lovely teacher :)

Catalina Griffiths Feb 2024


Sam, out teacher, was so lovely and funny. He took a lot of care to make sure that everyone's rings turned out beautifully and was very knowledgeable. He delivered the class in a very clear and at times, hilarious manner and I would absolutely recommend this class to others interested in ring making.

Hannah Crosby Feb 2024

I had such a good time making my bowl out of clay. I'm looking forward to using it! thank you to your team for their patience and help making my piece at least useable!

Keep up the good work

Tanya Kuhrt Feb 2024


Fun and enjoyable morning and the tutor was great. Only downside was I didn’t realise it was air drying clay rather than real clay so we weren’t able to make anything that could contain food or drink. But maybe it said it on the ad and I missed it.

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


Attended the free flow session as a total beginner with a friend. The whole place was a really good vibe, with an amazing playlist and free flow of paint and tools. It was just a fun activity to destress after work, would definitely do it again

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


Relaxed free flow painting unguided class - nice activity but could do with a few more paint colour options

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


Great place!
I would recommend having more magazines for the collage as most of the material was from the same “Artist” magazine which had limited options.

Laura Cognet Feb 2024


Abi was great! I hadn't held a brush since kindergarten but I made a masterpiece thanks to her! I had a lot of fun

Sophia Collin Feb 2024


Quite expensive for the time you actually spend making the candles which was around 50 minutes and most of that time is just listening to instruction. Would be good to have more decoration and essential oil oprions

We had such a great time doing our painting! Is hard to start at blank sheet, but one you've started you can't stop!
The teacher was very helpful and supported everyone on their painting journey, so we got a perfect result in the end!
Thank you!
I will definitely book a few classes more with my friends!

Humera Khalifa Feb 2024


Good value for money, painting was accessible for beginners. Everything setup well and on time. Few improvements to make- have paint bottles and tissue paper around so feels less awkward to ask. Teacher can also be a bit more attentive to attendees!

Jovian Mead Feb 2024


Great time everyone was welcoming and nice there was so much help with finding items.
There was a great vibe in the space which made me and my guest comfortable.
Everyone was very nice and helpful that night.
Thank you

Myself and 9 others attended the Sip & Paint class on Saturday for my hen party and had the best time! It was the perfect activity to do with family and friends as it suited all ages and was very relaxed! Even those amongst us who swore we couldn't paint were impressed by our creations at the end which is all credit to Abi and her amazing talent and instruction. We were provided with ample materials, more prosecco than we could even drink as we were so focused on our painting and laughed so much along the way.
Thankyou Abi for a wonderful afternoon, we would definitely come back in the future and recommend to others.

Grace Feb 2024


It was so much fun! I will definitely be returning for more guided classes. The teacher was also brilliant x

Genevieve Price Feb 2024

Painting class review by Genevieve Price - London

Caroline Bletcher Feb 2024


We had a nice time at the class and the teacher was friendly but we didn’t feel there was much teaching involved. It was a very big group and we were only given a few tips at the beginning. The teacher didn’t take time to look at our paintings individually or give us any individual tips.

Anonymised ClassBento student Feb 2024


Someone put upfront on a stand a painting with written "from the river to the sea". Noone took it off from there. It made me very uncomfortable. I thought I go to a cultural place and was not prepared to see antisemics Moto in a place like that.

Teacher's response

Dear valued customer, We sincerely apologize for any discomfort caused by the painting featuring the phrase "from the river to the sea" at Art Play. Please know that this artwork was painted by a customer and not endorsed by Art Play.

We have promptly taken down the painting and want to assure you that Art Play remains impartial to any political movements. We value your feedback and are working to prevent such incidents in the future.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we appreciate your understanding.

Rachel Flahaut Feb 2024


Great class thanks to Thomas we had fun and made nice pottery :) will definitely come back soon

Nishanthan Venkatesan Feb 2024


This was a surprise for my partner for her birthday and both her and I enjoyed this class very much. Our instructor Sam was one of the best teachers I've had and his passion and an enthusiasm for the craft really came through during the class. I would 100% recommend this class to anyone.

Isabel Moretti Feb 2024


Sam was a truly amazing teacher
He is super patient and friendly, and will explain everything and help you make a beautiful ring with a smile on his face the whole time.
The venue is also great - paintings everywhere and all sorts of people doing all sorts of crafts.
During your break you will be able to pick up a drink (I got a hot tea for only £2 as I was doing dry January) and look around at what other groups are doing.

Absolutely worth the money

One tip: there were mostly couples who attended this class so keep that in mind if you plan on signing up!

Hannah Williams Feb 2024


Teacher Sam was great, happy with my final ring and had fun along the way

Leila Ziani Jan 2024

I took a class this week and it was good fun. It was a basic intro to acrylic painting class and the teacher was great. It was good value for money, and I got a really good taste of how to work with acrylic paint. I’d definitely recommend this class!

Chiara Attal Jan 2024


Great workshop, the teacher was very patient and explained everything well. The pieces came out very fun.

Veronica Beltrami Jan 2024


I attended a candle making session led by Sophie with a friend. I am normally really bad when it comes to any DIY activities so I was not too sure I was going to enjoy it 100% but the whole experience was great.
Sophie explained each step very clearly and recommended some combinations for essential oils as well.
Have already recommended the place to friends and colleagues and will be definitely back to try other activities

Krishan Selvamanoharan Jan 2024


Sophie was a brilliant teacher, very informative with a great personality! Would def recommend the class!

I attended the hand pottery workshop with my friend and I had a really fun time.

Our teacher was kind and engaging. Would deffo recommend to anyone wishing to something fun and different in London.

Anonymised ClassBento student Jan 2024


I attended the silver ring making class with my partner. We were provided with all the equipment to make custom rings. There was enough individual equipment so we didn't have to wait too long for other members of the group in order to progress with the task. The only equipment there was less of was the items that were more hazardous, and required one on one help from the instructor. The instructor was amazing, she was super personable, knowledgeable and helpful. We cut and sized our rings and designed them too. We took home the rings at the end of the class. The class is fantastic value for money and we will be back to ArtPlay for more classes and also will probably take some more classes with Denna too

A really great experience. The staff is friendly and professional, and the paint class is a great way to enjoy yourself. Plus, you don't need to be a professional painter to have a good time.

Marc Ellis Jan 2024


Saturday night hang out for us both, 2 people new to teach other. why not paint and drink wine :) was good fun, just to express without concern for outcome was fun, many people there doing very nice things in 2 hours , I was more into throw it on, and see what develops for an initial idea it morphed and got distorted as it went aling, i can see it being addictive. might try no wine next time. nice to be in a group of people just playing, good atmosphere

Shantnu Jan 2024


Thank you so much for helping me run my birthday party so smoothly. I'm sorry I didn't manage to get the names of the staff, but all of them were so accommodating and helped us get started. I also really appreciate letting us cut the birthday cake in the venue. Overall great experience

Really fun class suitable for all levels. Great to do with friends or family, tons of other classes in the same space that we want to try

Hand Building Pottery Class review by Clara Lafon - London

Mike Fox Jan 2024


We organised a pottery class for our work team social at Art Play London in Spitalfields Market, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice. Sorcha and Simon, our instructors for the day, exhibited remarkable patience in guiding our group of 30 through the intricacies of pottery making. Their expertise made the experience enjoyable for everyone involved.

What set this pottery class apart from typical corporate events was its refreshing and hands-on nature. It offered a welcome break from the usual routine, allowing us to unleash our creativity in a relaxed and supportive environment.

One aspect we particularly appreciated was the convenience of leaving our creations to dry at the classroom and picking them up later. This thoughtful touch made the entire process seamless and hassle-free.

Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend the pottery class at Art Play London to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable team-building activity.

It's nice and fun. I liked it. The only thing is that 2 hours isn't enough. I felt a little bit in a rush and stressed to paint with an instructor.

Definitely worth the money and is a unique experience

Myself and three others went to the air dry clay pottery class. It was a lovely experience. The person leading the class did an amazing job of guiding the class and walking around to give 1:1 help. I enjoyed having the freedom to make anything I wanted or the option of making a pot with guided steps.

We had a lovely time at the candle making class. Our teachers Sophie was friendly and welcoming and was on hand to help. Would 100% recommend this class!

Anonymised ClassBento student Jan 2024


Everything was great and lots of fun. Giving 4 stars because they couldn’t find my booking on their list, and the internet connection was not strong at the venue and next doors WiFi wasn’t working for me either, so it was taking a while for me to get to the email confirmation. Instead of the person at the door was trying to figure out why my name was missing from their list he went off to help other people. Had I not managed to find my email I assume from his disinterest in helping me that I wouldn’t have been able to participate.

Georgina Jan 2024


Our 6 year old really enjoyed the class. The teacher was really patient and attentive, encouraging his creativity. There were loads of materials available to use, felt really relaxed and 2 hours felt like the perfect length. Our son really enjoyed his afternoon, thank you!

Hi Georgina,

So happy to hear he enjoyed the class! Thank you for the kind review and we look forward to seeing you again soon!

The teacher was warm and welcoming, I chose to do this with friends who cannot paint and they really enjoyed it. I would recommend this as a good day out with friends.

Tamara Jan 2024


First we arrived at the class and the studio was dark and locked. We phoned the company and messaged the company and got no response. Approximately 10 - 15 minutes after the start of the class another student reached someone. When the teacher finally showed up she was not apologetic and just threw a box of magazines on the table and told us not to put our coats on the benches and we must hang them up. That was the extent of her interaction with us.

Teacher's response

Dear Tamara,

We deeply apologize for the inconvenience you experienced at our class, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. The delayed response and locked studio are unacceptable, and we understand the frustration it caused. We're actively addressing this issue to ensure it doesn't happen again.

Regarding the teacher's behavior, we're truly sorry for her lack of apology and the limited interaction during the class. Your feedback is invaluable, and we're committed to improving our services.

If there's anything specific you'd like us to address or if you have further details to share, please reach out directly. We appreciate your understanding and hope to have the opportunity to make amends in the future.

Will McVitty Jan 2024


Went for a friends birthday and we all had a fantastic time. Teacher was clear with instruction but you were allowed to put your own spin on it.

I did free flow class, great way to let out your creativity and disconnect from the internet.

Anonymised ClassBento student Jan 2024


The class itself was good and the teacher (Abby?) was friendly and welcoming. It’s very loud in the venue due to multiple classes so it was difficult to hear her.
There was plenty of materials to use, although there could have been more tongs/utensils. Would recommend as a once of fun thing to do although feel it’s slightly overpriced for what it was.

Teacher's response

Dear valued customer,

Thank you for the positive feedback on the class and Abby's teaching. We apologize for the noise disruption and appreciate your suggestion about additional utensils. Your insights are valuable, and we'll review our pricing. We hope to welcome you back for another enjoyable experience in the future!

Annabel Herrick Jan 2024


The instructor didn't know the class was 2 hours, so it felt like she was just passing the last hour rather than giving us helpful instruction and tips. She also admitted she wasn't an embroidery expert so it felt like she was winging it to be honest.

Teacher's response

Dear Annabel,

We appreciate your feedback on the embroidery class. Apologies for any inconvenience caused by the instructor's oversight. We're addressing this to ensure a better experience in the future. Thank you for bringing it to our attention!

Maëva Jacques Jan 2024

Very nice class. I was really with what I did. The teacher is talking you through step by step.

Nicola Lynch Jan 2024


We had a fantastic time at our canvas painting session the other day, even my husband who does not usually enjoy anything creative really enjoyed himself and found it extremely relaxing and therapeutic. The staff were friendly and welcoming, we would definitely recommend and look forward to our next visit.

Teacher's response

Dear Nicola,

Thank you for the fantastic review! Delighted to hear you both enjoyed the canvas painting session. We appreciate the kind words and look forward to your next visit!

Ana Jan 2024


It was such a great class! We walked away with a lovely and original ring. The teacher was so very attentive and funny and relaxed! It was a great experience its a great activity to do solo too great for people that like to do stuff with their hands. Thank you so much!

Teacher's response

Dear Ana,

Thanks for the fantastic review! Delighted you enjoyed the class and crafted a unique ring. We appreciate your positive feedback on the teacher and are glad it's a great solo activity. Thanks for choosing our class!

Sarah Kramer Jan 2024


Denna was a great teacher, navigating us swiftly but clearly through the steps of sizing, shaping, hammering, soldering and then texturing our own silver ring. The venue was nice, and experience was so fun.

Anonymised ClassBento student Jan 2024


Hi,

I thought the free flow session was great. The only issue was when I asked if I could pick up my painting the next day, the staff said they couldn’t guarantee it would be there. So I found that disappointing that there wasn’t an option for me to collect my painting

Teacher's response

Dear valued customer,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the free-flow session; we're pleased to hear you enjoyed it! Regarding picking up your painting, we apologize for any inconvenience. Unfortunately, due to limited storage space, we can't guarantee the retention of paintings. However, customers are welcome to pay a holding fee or use a bag to take their paintings while they dry. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming you back!

Christopher Patten-Walker Jan 2024


Lovely venue and music that played while we painted. Very kind staff who made my birthday extra special.

Roslyn Lai Jan 2024


Great class, patient teacher and beautiful paintings to take home at the end of the day!

Chloe Jan 2024


I had a great experience at the candle making class with Sophie! We were in a small group of 4 people, with Sophie guiding us. There was a great supply of essential oils for the candles, and plenty of ways to decorate. It was a fantastic first time experience at Art Play Spitalfields and I’ll definitely be back!

Ameera Jan 2024


Sophie (instructor) was great. Class was intimate with 4 people total and enjoyable. Great evening, and lovely conversation. Well guided but room to be do every step independently. Got to make a jar candle and a mold candle so got 2 candles which we got to decorate which was super fun. Have to go back to collect them once they’re fully dry. Overall loved the activity and would do it again.

Teacher's response

Dear Ameera,

Thanks for the awesome review! Looking forward to welcoming you back.

Anonymised ClassBento student Jan 2024


I have wanted to participate in a Sip and Paint for quite a while, and I'm so glad we went with this one! We absolutely loved it. The teacher was super friendly and helpful, the painting was fairly simple and the whole class had a very positive, relaxed atmosphere (arguably helped by the bottomless prosecco!) Lots of fun, would definitely return for another session!

Heba Mathew Jan 2024


My friend and I recently attended this candle making class it was really a memorable experience and truly entertaining the venue itself is so inspiring with artistic vibes special shout out to our mentor Sophie she is very friendly and interacted with the students constantly taught us really well it was a well spend day and time would recommend to others

Anna Plotnikova Jan 2024


There's no teacher, unfortunately. would be great next time to have a teacher to help improve our skills.

Shirin Majid Jan 2024


Excellent teacher, learned a lot and had fun plus went home with priceless art! Glad we did it :)

Priya Thadhani Jan 2024


Don gave us a great welcome and really took care of us throughout our bottomless prosecco and paint class. Our teacher Abby was friendly and explained the steps very well, she delivered the class at the right pace and didn't make us feel rushed. Really enjoyed it and will be going back!

Rana Awad Jan 2024

It was a very nice experience. The teacher was friendly. It also helped that it was within the market, easier to see other things once we were finished. We had fun.

We had a fantastic time at the silver ring making class. The teacher was brilliant and we all came away with a lovely reminder of our time together. We bought this a as a Xmas present for our 11 year old son and he was so pleased with what he made. Would thoroughly recommend this for anyone looking for a nice activity to do as a group

Libby Blackett Jan 2024


Fantastic session - my daughter has been looking for silversmith courses that would allow her to join as a kid and this one did not disappoint. Great venue, materials, and teacher. Thank you!

Despoina Boli Jan 2024


Great experience! The whole process was easy to follow and the result was amazing! Definitely recommended!

Ivo Ramalho Jan 2024


We booked the Unguided free flow painting, and it was really fun!
We got a bit of guidance before starting to paint, got all the materials we needed and had a great time. 2 hours well spent!
The staff was all really friendly, specially Helena who answered any questions we had.

Nicola Harron Jan 2024


Had such a good time with the 3 year old I nanny! We took part in the up-cycling canvas painting class and it was so much fun. We were the first ones there and had the place to ourselves which was lovely. The lady was so kind, she gave us a tour of the place with clear and easy instructions to follow. The place is really chilled and the 3 year old loved spending time creating beautiful paintings. I would definitely recommend this place!

Michelle Gayle Jan 2024


The teacher was amazing. Inspired my partner and myself to make our own candles at home.

Teacher was amazing. Very warm reception. I think the course could have been wrapped up in an hour. Bring containers and be aware of the drying time to take your candles home. These need to be transparent when booking the course.

Me and my friend we liked it a lot and loved the teacher My friend even wanted to try out more by herself after today’s lesson
Big appreciate to the teacher

Terrarium Making Workshop review by Sophie Lauriou - London

Aslan Barlas Jan 2024


I visited a couple of days ago with my 2 daughters aged 12 & 6. Thomas our teacher, was very welcoming as were the other teachers/staff at Art play.

Thomas was very engaging with the girls throughout the clay modelling experience. It was very relaxed and enjoyable. He asked really interesting questions regarding the animals that the girls were making out of the clay and got them thinking about what they were doing.
Apart from booking classes, you can also drop in on a ad hoc basis to paint.
I would recommend Art play and will look to visit again , perhaps to give the girls a go at painting.
It’s a short walk from Liverpool Street station, Bishops Gate Exit and easily found once you enter the market.

Aslan.

Jill Westoby Jan 2024


We really enjoyed our life drawing class, our teacher was excellent and it was great fun!

Anonymised ClassBento student Jan 2024


Abi was a great teacher (her dog was a lovey addition to the class too). Very helpful, interactive and we all had a lot of fun making the pottery. We'll be back!

Sabina Jan 2024


The teacher was great and accommodating. Step by step instructions and a really enjoyable class to do with friends, family or with your partner. I will be returning with my girls next time!

Great fun and well organised! Great variety of activities to participate in. Good for all ages :)

Greta Jan 2024


We generally enjoyed the class and are excited to try our candles at home. However, there wasn't a lot of information regarding how to mix different scents and how the notes work. Making the candle was really easy, but designing a good scent was a lot more challenging.

Aanya Chudoory Dec 2023


Me and my daughter we had such a lovely time there and so much fun. Highly recommendable. Great locations, easy to reach and great environment.

Mateo Dworkin Dec 2023


Thomas was a great tutor!
Learned so much with his help!
Recommend this class for anyone.

Tida Dansogho Dec 2023


It was perfect : the spot, the workers, the vibe, 10/10 I highly recommend it.

Eden Blakeman Dec 2023


We had Elena as our teacher and she was great - super nice and interactive. It was a guided painting class so we essentially watched her paint something step by step and copied, but she also gave us the artistic freedom to make changes. I did this with my brother as a present for him and it was really nice to spend time together painting!

Anonymised ClassBento student Dec 2023


Really good activity to unwind, relax and get creative with.
Good materials to choose from and will come again.

Defiantly worth the money

Paulette Dec 2023


I think the course was very good, I enjoyed the experience and the teacher taught us very well.

Mariam Dec 2023


Class teacher was lovely, super helpful and warm. The class had a really fun relaxed atmosphere, we were able to order our coffees as soon as we arrived and had space to hang up our coats. We were given all the materials needed to make our clay creations with an option to come back to pick up and/or paint and gloss our finished piece. The extra step of painting and glossing is only an extra £5 which is very reasonable.

Laney McKiernan Dec 2023


Great silver ring making workshop. Denna was a fab teacher. Highly recommend this ring making class

Oishika Dec 2023

it was really nice and me and my girlfriend really enjoyed it. it was a great experience

Ruby Kuraishe Dec 2023


This was a far sweeter gentler, more creative way of meeting Santa and it created a lovely VILP experience - very important little person.

In place of a grotto, a small group of children and guardians participate in a little festive craft session with an art helper, Lizzi, and a very amiable, authentic looking Santa! Santa and Lizzi supervise the art session, where there are lots of sparkly and festive art supplies and Santa checks in with everyone ( and the parents!) as the kids create cards and decorate a lovely wooden bauble. The half hour session was quite relaxed and switched up the usual expensive Santa grotto experience. And at the end, she received a really sweet crafty gift.

My nine year old is a crafty art lover and she had spotted the art studio in Spitalfields earlier in the month and was keen to try it out. And so when I came across the Santa session on the website , it felt like it would be a lovely way to have some quality festive time.
We didn’t quite know what to expect- and she felt a bit out of place as she was by far the oldest there, but as she’s on the hinterland of “not believing”) Lizzy and Santa really made her feel at ease.

Santa ( aka Ben) was very funny and knowledgeable about her, and she thought it was very funny that he gave her a lecture about being kind to her tired mummy and reminder her of previous late night Christmas Eve shenanigans.
We really enjoyed it, and as it’s in a great location- the heart of Spitalfields market, we made a festive evening of it.
If we were to suggest changes:

*I think a bit more info on the class description and how the “Santa bit” works would help.

* the session could do with a bit of a narrative drive and structure. Eg Santa’s popped over from the North Pole because he needs your help…

*the loose “ anything goes” feel of the session was lovely for the little ones, but for older children some added instruction, higher level of art, tips or goals would have been more engaging. The lovely wooden bauble was a great idea- and is now hanging on our tree. She was less interested in making greeting cards, but if she had been taught a few neat art tricks, eg how to make simple cards , draw a cute Santa/ deer she would have really engaged.

*I’m loathe to say this, as I liked the small size of the class, but better, clearer promotion of the session would help. We found it by accident in passing…

BUT at the end of a long week the session was fun for both me and my daughter, and got us in the festive spirit. We’re going to come back and try and get in on an acrylic painting session!
THANK YOU.

Sofia Newton Dec 2023


Such a great class. I have been wanting to learn how to make candles for a long time and this was a perfect introduction to candle making.

Giselle Love Dec 2023


Amazing teacher, super friendly and informative with loads of lessons to take home for future candle making:) great fun, highly recommend

Rachelle Boehm Dec 2023


Rebooked from 2022, this year was definitely different and felt like an afterthought for the kids booking - was a bit of a disappointment and quite unorganised. Santa was still excellent and attentive - top marks for Santa!

Gemma Grainger Dec 2023


Such a fun experience, I loved the variety of materials, there was everything I needed. The staff were so helpful and friendly. I will definitely be coming back often, it is such good value for money

Scarlett Gregory Dec 2023


Disappointed compared to last years experience. Would rather pay more for a better experience. Was expecting something a bit more special than stickers and pens for the card decorating. No gift given to the children as per the description in the advert. Not bad for the price but was expecting something a bit more special!

Anonymised ClassBento student Dec 2023


Disappointing compared to last year which was truly magical. Similar booking issues where our booking wasn’t recognised (same thing happened last year). No grotto or festive atmosphere this year, and no gift for the children.

Claire Cotton Dec 2023


The teacher was amazing. So much fun. I made Beautiful ring too! Chatting and laugh all evening - I would definitely recommend this workshop x

Sarah Webb Dec 2023


Friendly and relaxed. Great introduction to acrylic pouring art. Would have loved to have been able to try a few more attempts to get to grips with the different pours and colour combinations

Tara Dec 2023


Sara was absolutely incredible - so patient and knowledgeable and made the learning fun and stress free. She was incredibly kind and even spent extra time after the class had finished helping me fix the pendant I'd been trying to make which had broken over and over. I was getting really demoralised and Sara stayed an extra 2 hours and even used her own clay to help me fix it. She really turned the day around and helped me make a butterfly pendant I love. Even though you can still see the cracks I love that she didn't discourage me from trying something very ambitious and instead helped me along the way when I overworked the clay and cracked it.

The class is incredible good value for money, it's so fun and she talks everything through by explaining what she's doing but giving you crafty alternatives you could do at home if you wanted (like oven baking instead of a blowtorch and nail tech tools for sculpting). Everything was tailored to making something we loved and I think Sara is just one of the nicest and most generous people I've ever met; she really made our day. I'll definitely be coming back for more classes or buying her do at home kits because she made something difficult really engaging and enjoyable
Thank you so much Sara I love my necklace

Kate Gilchrist Dec 2023


It was really fun - the teacher was lovely! The space is really nice and well located.
Friendly dog was a bonus. :)

Anonymised ClassBento student Dec 2023


We did the Santa Life Drawing class for our work Christmas party this year and it was such good fun! We'll definitely book future work socials here as it was great for team building and doing something a little bit different. The staff on the day Simon and Ben were very professional and did a good job at keeping the class moving in-between more social elements of the class. 100% would recommend :)

Kirsty Penture Dec 2023


I booked for my friend and me a free flow workshop painting on recycling canvas. It was really a fun and nice experience. I will definitely come back. For me, free flow painting is quite therapeutic. If it is too noisy with the other workshop around having their guided painting class, you can still put your headphones on and enjoy being in your bubble painting.

Catherine Yuan Dec 2023


Very fun! Teacher was good but a lot of us couldn't hear him since we were a fairly large table. The venue is also not bad but maybe a bit cramped and chaotic. But would assume that this was more of a problem for us since again we were a large group.

Liliia Ivus Dec 2023

Lovely time and our course host was very knowledgable and caring. She supported us all really well.

It wasn't quite the soothing experience we thought we might have had due to how busy and packed it was however it was enjoyable and we learnt a lot.

Christophe Diederichs Dec 2023


Had an amazing time at the free flow session. Staff were so friendly and the space was great! Was expecting to have a nice time, but the experience went above and beyond!

the class was cancelled the same day, no specific reason was given. We had canceled other plans to be able to attend.

Lizzie was fabulous, we had a brilliant time. Candles were great and I had a brilliant birthday, thank you xxxc

Really great even for a birthday! The teacher was super sweet with the kids. Thank you

Alice Vignati Dec 2023


I think with too many people it is a bit difficult to follow properly. But always amazing all the organization and the opportunity they give. It is a real gift to have a moment like that in which you can just unwind your mind and concentrate on something nice.

Laura Healy Dec 2023


The class was fun but also relaxing, I think we all got really involved and enjoyed creating our pots. The teacher was informative and helped us 0ne-to-one when we got a little stuck. I really enjoyed it.

She was perfect, kind, funny.
The team is also was great.
The area is where the workshop was,a bit dark, maybe need to change if possible.

Great value for money - lots of colour options and 3 brush sizes. We chose to do unguided to let our creativity flow and it was very fun! Word of warning - the paint does not come out of your clothes so don't wear your best things!

Maria Martin Dec 2023


So fun, teacher was super friendly and welcoming and supportive throughout the class. Would recommend!

Victoria Phillpott-Clark Dec 2023


This was my second visit to do an art session. I treated my sister to the session - her first time - we both had a fun time and we have recommended your sessions to many friends. We have not painted dance school days but we really enjoyed the painting. All the staff were here helpful and friendly.

Anonymised ClassBento student Dec 2023


It was a nice class. The lady who helped us told us where to get supplies and didn’t mind repeating herself. She also helped (I think her name was liv) decide who did the best painting out of me and my partner. It was a really nice independent free flow class where we could do what we liked

Vina Talwar Dec 2023


The teacher didn't answer the call so we could inform them we are running late.

When we entered the instructions were not given properly.
Except paints are there and you can order here.

The slot was between 3-5pm
But you can stay for longer.

Overall the painting experience was fun we enjoyed but the service was not great hence ok

Malek Dec 2023


Great atmosphere! We done the free flow painting! Definitely would recommend! Book your class in advance

Nasro Mohamed Dec 2023


It was a good experience, my friends and I enjoyed it. We took a free flow class so we were just left to our own imaginations. The equipment and materials were accessible and if any material ran out the teachers were there to help. Would go again and try other classes available.

Abdul Momin Dec 2023


Excellent service, lady gave us free drinks as we dont drink alcohol. Customer service excellent and lots of lots of fun with amazing mix of people, me and wife loved it so much we will have to come again!

We had our team event with ArtPlay London and I can 0nnly highly recommend it asa great group activity. The venue was very well located within the Spitalfield market and the event was well organized. Everything needed was provided and the stuff was extremely friendly. Our teacher Sophia was absolute amazing! She was very nice and supportive and was matching our energy. It was a flawless experience and I cannot emphasis enough how much the team enjoyed this event.

Trusha Raval Dec 2023

Stefania Bosco Dec 2023


I really enjoy the class. Aija was really good at explaining all the candle making process.
It was my first time at Art Play London and I liked the idea of a venue where people could gather to make some art whether it was candles or paintings.

It was really great. Amazing experience. I had a really fun time and the people who worked there are really nice

Bethany Simpkin Dec 2023


We went for our works christmas do and it was brilliant. All work tools were provided and we were encouraged to try and use all the tools and get comfortable with the clay. We were given clear directions which was great for those of us who had no ide what we were doing, but also there was room for creativity and the team made some really impressive pots. Aprons were probvided, there was a christmas tree and a santa drawing drawing class oing on at the back which added to the festve fun. We will definitely go back.

I would reccomend pre-ordering a round of drinks if you go with a big group just for ease. We had pizzas after the session which were delicious. It was great, lovely atmosphere lovely, supportive teachers supportive and the whole team enjoyed it.

Our teacher Denna was an absolute star who had something funny to say about everything! She very clearly cared for her customers experience and created a fun, educational environment for the group. Denna's teaching skills were on point as everyone (bar a couple right handers) excelled in the task after instructions. Her ability to remember everyone's name is still harrowing the brain! She managed to skip through any hurdle that popped up during the class. She was very good at keeping everyone engaged, even when unfortunate delays occurred. Her energy and passion for this craft is admirable. Thanks Denna!

Veronica Stevenson Dec 2023


Absolutely loved Abi and the class. Highly recommend for a fun day with an experienced artist. I love how they have a bar and sort food for private classes, makes it super easy and seamless.

Andrea Dec 2023


I loved everything about the class. All the supplies were included and the teacher was very helpful. I never took an art class before and I didn’t feel intimidated at all. I definitely will go again. So much fun.

Stefania Pizzeghello Dec 2023


The teacher amazing, very helpful and supportive, the experience even more amazing, I enjoyed it a lot and you get to keep a beautiful silver ring!

Sabrina Wray Dec 2023


My friend & I came for the sip n paint class and we had a really cozy & fun evening. The staff were all lovely - Abby was teaching our class & from the looks of everyone’s paintings at the end… she did a great job! Our ginger bread houses are up on our walls and we’re already looking at booking our next experience! Thanks Abby & team :)

Samantha Dec 2023


Sophia was fab and very patient with us novices! Everyone enjoyed, so thank you Sophia

Raihan Mohammad Dec 2023


The teacher was AMAZING

Loved her energy patience and teaching

We had an unfortunate situation where we had delays, possibly caused by the wax left by previous class. This caused significant delays but we still enjoyed the experience and had fun due to her!

She even offered refunds but we are happy to decline this and pay for the experience as we all still had a great time. Thank you again Denna

Vinai Samson Kongara Dec 2023


Ellena was really lovely, even though it was a busy class. She made the time to walk around and offer help and suggestions.

Painting was also very lovely and christmassy! We did it as a group of 4 and loved it.

Silvia Lozano Guerrero Dec 2023


Abbey (the teacher) was great. Everything is super organised and chilled at the same time. The workshop was therapeutic. I'll come back!

Magdalena Dec 2023


What was the teacher like?
Sorcha was very professional and knowledgeable. Her enthusiasm and classes encourage us to book different classes with you!
How was the venue (if applicable)? - Great! Very artistic, warm and spacious.
If materials were provided, did you like them? - All materials were provided, nothing was lacking.
Was the experience good value for money? - Definitely!
What did you do / learn? - How to operate with clay :)
What did you like most? - The atmosphere, and joy my team had thanks to Art Play team.

Emma McGunniess Dec 2023


Sasha is an amazing Teacher, very accommodating and a great help. Every participant enjoyed the Workshop and it all went as we expected. Such a great fun for the entire team.

Alison Lin Dec 2023


Great session, I will visit again. My friend who doesn’t like painting found it very therapeutic when we finished.

People were lovely and helpful, lovely atmosphere and an amazing value for money. The only reason why I’ve given 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the lack of space. It all felt like we’ve been all squeezed in a bit.

Chloe Dec 2023


Great experience and service from start to finish, such a great relaxed atmosphere and great way to spend a few hours in London

Teacher's response

Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you had a great experience and enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere.

Me and my friends had the most amazing time! None of us are artsy or had done this before, but the instructor was so patient and friendly and made it very fun. We will be coming back!

Amazing experience and very meditative. Elena was great at leading the class, i would recommend to anyone looking for a fun activity.

Harry Biddle Dec 2023


Class was great, teacher was very good loved it all. Would recommend to a friend

Anonymised ClassBento student Dec 2023


Great experience, wish there were more colours and costumer service but that’s probably because there was another event today!

Teacher's response

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We're glad to hear you had a great experience, and we appreciate your input on the color options and customer service. We'll definitely take your comments into consideration for improvement.

Stefania Pizzeghello Dec 2023

Lovely venue and very friendly teacher and we made really lovely wreaths - really enjoyed it!

Anonymised ClassBento student Dec 2023


Overall great experience - I booked out an unguided free flow painting session for my mum's 60th birthday and it turned out lovely. The staff were helpful even when a few of us were running late. The equipment was pretty good and we got to take the paintings home after. Lovely atmosphere, and it was a calming activity. Will definitely do it again.

Unguided Free Flow Painting Workshop review by Anonymised ClassBento student - London

Anonymised ClassBento student Dec 2023


The class was overall nice but it felt a bit rushed.
The candles turned out nice, the materials were great and the food was also better than expected.
It would have been nice to have more content as part of the class (for example, talk about scents and their affects or how to combine them in a nice way).
We could have enjoyed staying there for a bit longer to finish our food and get more drinks, but felt like we were encouraged to leave.

Teacher's response

Thank you for your feedback! We're pleased you enjoyed the class, and your suggestions for more in-depth discussions on scents are noted. Apologies for any perceived rush, and we'll work on ensuring a more relaxed pace. We appreciate your input and look forward to welcoming you back for an improved experience.

Jessie Dec 2023


Denna was very friendly and gave clear instructions for what we need to do. She tells great jokes

Anonymised ClassBento student Dec 2023


Denna the instructor was very informative and friendly. Interacted with the group and explained each part of the process in detail as we did it. Only downside was the class was held upstairs in a bar rather than the Artplay Studio and it was a bit cold despite there being a heater above the table.

Teacher's response

Thank you for your positive review! We're thrilled to hear that Denna provided an informative and friendly experience, guiding you through each step with detail. We appreciate your feedback about the location, and we apologize for any discomfort caused by the temperature. Your input is invaluable, and we'll ensure to address this concern for a more comfortable setting in the future. We hope to welcome you back for another creative session soon!

Anonymised ClassBento student Dec 2023

Ananya Samuel Nov 2023


Amazing class. Denna was informative and enthusiastic. The class organised well, so there was lots to do but it also felt relaxed. It was great as a one off but also felt like a good intro class for anyone who might want to learn about jewellery making. Thanks Denna!

Teacher's response

Hi Ananya,

Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed the class with Denna. Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and we hope to welcome you back for more creative experiences soon!

The teacher was amazing! So lovely and super helpful. We had the best time. Thanks!

Amanda Kutch Nov 2023


The teacher was amazing and great at explaining everything! I loved the ring I made and had a lot of fun. The outdoor venue upstairs was a bit too cold to my liking, it would have been nice to have been told ahead of time that we would be in a heated outdoor situation so that I could have dressed accordingly.

Molly Beck Nov 2023


Was a really great class, the teacher was hilarious and so helpful made you feel at ease immediately, loved it!

Lucy Hawkins Nov 2023

Harvie McGregor Nov 2023


Was a great class and really enjoyable. Wish there was a little more variety in what pieces you could create. However, overall I do recommend!

Teacher's response

Hi Harvie,

Thank you for your positive feedback! We appreciate your recommendation and will certainly consider incorporating more variety in future classes. We hope to see you again soon!

We really enjoyed the Upcycling Workshop. It was great to have the time and space to be creative, and to help upcycle materials. We really enjoyed it and would go again.

Teacher's response

Hi Caitlin,

Thanks for the feedback! We look forward to having you back.

Helen Farthing Nov 2023


The teacher Denna was brilliant during the silver making workshop. She spoke clearly and slowly to us all so we could follow her as we were all deaf except one lovely hearing friend who interpreted for us during the workshop. We all had an amazing time and loved the activity! Would highly recommend.
The photo of our lovely rings and Denna with my wonderful friend interpreting!

Catherine Chevillon Nov 2023


Very good experience, I really enjoyed doing the class, with a excellent teacher I will come back for other classes.

Lauren Nov 2023


This class was good fun, well organised and I will definitely recommend. Jenna was a great teacher and made sure we all left with well made and wearable rings.
Silva was extremely helpful in altering our booking on short notice and provided quick responses.
Overall a great class and very good customer service, we all had a lovely time at the event, thanks again!

Charlotte Tseng Nov 2023


We really enjoyed painting but the lecture went too fast. I felt like we were rushing to finish the painting and the drinks. Not a relaxing vibe but still recommend to everyone who wants to try.

Teacher's response

Hi Charlotte,

Thank you for sharing your experience! We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration to improve the pace and overall vibe for future sessions. We're glad you still recommend it, and we hope to see you again!

Andrea Gavin Nov 2023


This was an amazing workshop. We were greeted by a staff member and shown all of the equipment we could use and left to get on with our painting!
The space was lovely, lots of different workshops going on and it was handy to be able to buy snacks and drinks too!

Perri Tamburello Nov 2023


Really fun class, all 15 of us enjoyed it and I would do it again! Chilled venue with nice staff.

Great setting - creatine & happy vibe
Great teacher - Simon takes us through the painting but was happy for people to free style and make it their own creations

Fun night & very generous with the Prosecco too - a top night all round

Blake Chrusciel Nov 2023


Sara was INCREDIBLE! I got to make exactly what I saw in my head and she went above and beyond go make that idea a reality. She even took one of my pieces home to fix Definitely trying to come back!

Pavneet Syan Nov 2023


Lizzie was lovely and patient and really eased everyone in. The class was pleasant and it was nice to have some techniques taught and the rest of the time to flow freely.

I'd recommend this for sure!

Anonymised ClassBento student Nov 2023


The teacher was very friendly and knowledgeable. All materials for making the ring were provided. Friends have complimented me on the ring I made. Thank you

Penny Nov 2023


I very much enjoyed my 3rd silver-ring workshop and the friend who came with me dud too. Thank you, Denna, was being a very good teacher, making the workshop fun, and ensuring we each came away with a ring we were felighted with .

The teacher was engaging & encouraging. Even when you felt silly, she’d make you laugh & help everyone individually. She was so helpful & lovely. Wanted to try something different, had a fun evening & got a cute, new piece of Jewellery to leave with. 10/10 would recommend. What a fun experience! Thank you! :)

Luke Anderson-Beamish Nov 2023

Angelina Nov 2023


It was a very wholesome experience. Our teacher for the session was very clear with her instructions and provided all the necessary essential oils and equipment for the class. I would recommend this creative experience.

Sarah Collins Nov 2023


The teacher was awesome, very informative and helpful, the materials and space were great. All around a greta experience.

Candice McDowell Nov 2023


was a lovely time, good chance to catch up with friends, more or less left to your own devices which was nice in this case

Dilek Nov 2023


Attended a clay modelling experience. Teacher was informative and helpful. Explained the method to use, and also explained you can do your own method. She was always on hand if you needed help and had a friendly nature.

Jasmine Reynolds Nov 2023


Could have more music playing a bit louder to get the vibe going but overall very enjoyable

Anonymised ClassBento student Nov 2023


Very nice and fun experience ! The teacher is great and the place has a really cool vibe. Would just recommend to come with an idea in mind as it can be quite difficult if you don't know what you're doing :-)

Anonymised ClassBento student Nov 2023


Great course.
The tutor was helpful.
More of a couples thing than a tuition into candle making.

Adriana Nov 2023


Has an amazing time at the workshop. I loved the girl that was leading it, she was down to earth, kind and very helpful.

I loved the aspect that you can have a drink whilst you are doing the workshop. The setting is so relaxing and great place to just learn something new without so much pressure.

Candle Making class review by Adriana - London

Rosanna Guida Nov 2023


Upcycling canvas workshop (no teacher). great experience. the canvases, although previously used, were perfectly fine to repaint on and plenty of material available. Lovely atmosphere and the staff were super nice. My daughter was celebrating her birthday with a bunch of friends and they had a ball! Highly recommended.

Anonymised ClassBento student Nov 2023


Very fun day out with friends. The teacher was engaging and provided guidance for those who weren't confident. Good value for money.

Monica Nov 2023


It was my first time painting and it was a fantastic experience. The place is very welcoming, the staff were kind and all the materials were available: canvas, brushes and acrylic paints. It was Sunday morning and little by little the place filled up, there were a lot of people painting, doing pottery or creating scented candles, some in silence, some laughing out loud. There was an incredible atmosphere of friendship and relaxation. It was possible to order drinks and food, in the end my daughter and I were supposed to stay for a couple of hours and instead we stayed for 4 hours. We will come back for sure.

John Turner Nov 2023


Really great fun, surprised and pleased with the result. Great teacher, lovely atmosphere and good location

Zoe North Nov 2023


Wonderful experience. Staff were friendly and supportive, but not intrusive. You could truly enjoy the evening and just be creative.

We did the self guided painting session. It was great fun and good value for money. Staff were friendly and helpful and all the equipment and materials provided were good quality. We bought coffees which were delicious! Lovely location within the market. Would definitely recommend this experience to others.

Araya Thammavisetsri Nov 2023


Didn’t joint the class I was late, but the staff were nice and offered us with free flow class instead

Teacher's response

Hi Araya,

Thank you for the review. We're glad our staff could offer you an alternative with the free-flow class. We hope you enjoyed it, and we'd love to have you join a future class!

Anonymised ClassBento student Nov 2023


I loved this place, the timing is good for the free flow you get to correct - guess some of the brushes are a little hard given how others have used them so may need more regular washing throughout day - otherwise it’s fun :)

Teacher's response

Hi,

Thank you for the positive feedback! We appreciate your input on the brushes and will make sure to address that for a better experience. We're thrilled you had fun, and we look forward to your next visit!

This is such a zen way to spend your day off. Simple as can be - go in, pick 1 item from the trolley, decor to your hearts content, go get some lunch while your piece is drying and take your item home to be used.

Everything you need is in this lovely studio and really helpful staff

Lois Hill Nov 2023


Really enjoyed our time! Very fun and therapeutic. Will definitely be coming back again soon!

Alexander Ocansey Nov 2023


The host was great, really guided us well through out the whole session.

The set-up was great too.

Really enjoyed myself.

Megan Nov 2023


We came to the sip and paint class for a hen do and it was perfect. Art Play is located in the Old Spitalfields Market which is a beautiful building and there was a great atmosphere. Our teacher was lovely and managed to guide us through to produce something which we were all proud of. We had a fantastic time and would absolutely recommend!

Carmen Rose Davidson Nov 2023


I highly recommend the 'sip and paint' experience. We organised a session for my birthday and it went down a treat. Very generous with the bottomless proseccos! The staff were warm, engaging and created a relaxed environment. The only downside was our facilitator did have to leave our class early and left us to our own devices. The only other critique is that they need to provide more hangers for the coat rack on a busy day. If those were the only criticisms, you are sure in for a fabulous time! Would definitely come again as everyone at my party really enjoyed themselves!

Siobhan Gavin Nov 2023


They do not reserve seats for bookings. We booked as a 5 but there was not enough space left on one table so had to sit back to back which wasn’t ideal.
Teacher was nice, but he was very rushed at the end.
Enjoyed and would go back.

Painting class review by Yaso Rhaasa - London

Sophia van Hagen Nov 2023


We had a great time at the candle making class at Art Play. Our instructor, Sophie, was really knowledgeable and let us have free reign of the scents and decorations for our candles. We made one candle in a glass jar and two candles in moulds.

Anonymised ClassBento student Nov 2023


We really enjoyed our collage workshop, it was the perfect activity to catch up with an old friend, chat and do an activity that really helped to end a creative slump, didn’t take up so much brain power that we couldn’t chat and the time passed too quickly really! (We didn’t think we would need to be there for the whole time but we could easily have stayed for much longer!) already planning to come again :)

Anonymised ClassBento student Nov 2023


The instructor Luca was great. The venue and materials were all great quality and complete. Overall a super fun experience and would recommend to everyone.

Hi,

Thank you for the glowing review! We're thrilled to hear that Luca, the venue, and the materials met your expectations. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back for another super fun experience!

Pottery class review by Germana Raciti - London

John Rollerson Nov 2023


Great fun, slightly chaotic but that added to the enjoyment! A really positive experience! Mixed outcomes on our art but all would do again in a heartbeat

Anonymised ClassBento student Nov 2023


Our session was independent and not tutor led (which is what I wanted and booked for) and I enjoyed it! It’s very busy, so I definitely recommend booking in advance.

Be aware that it can be a bit loud as the classes go on at the same time and it’s all on one floor

Our host/server (apologies I didn’t get his name) was very nice and welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our experience (thank you!)

Overall, the experience was fun and you get to take your art home

Rebecca Deller Nov 2023


What a great experience! Such a fun night - generous with prosecco, talented teacher and a really a fab way of celebrating a birthday. I realised how therapeutic painting was too! Loved it - thank you artplay really good value for money!

We had a very happy time At our class. It was wonderfully informal and encouraging for 2 newcomers, and yet the painting was taken seriously. Our instructor was clear, helpful and patient.

Jack Lawrie Nov 2023


Great experience. The class we had booked onto was cancelled (group of 15), but we were offered Another at the same time and same location which was worth more. Great teachers, very fun experience, friendly staff. Probably a bit expensive for what you get though and the seating was very cramped, but would still consider going back.

Victoria Saunders Nov 2023


Has such a fun experience at the sip and paint class (bottomless Prosecco and Harry Potter themed). The teacher was so lovely and patient with everyone, especially as everyone got louder and louder as the session went on. I was very worried the painting chosen was too difficult to recreate but the instructions were so simple each step we were so impressed with our end results Loved it and would 100% recommend The staff were all so friendly and welcoming.

Rachel Nov 2023

Incredible experience.
Location is great, right inside Spitalfields market so we grabbed some great food first. Good selection of affordable drinks inside. Lovely friendly staff. Good materials for painting and lots of creativity in the air.
My new favourite place

Manon Nov 2023


Really liked it, it was simple and super relaxing moment. I would do it again

Suzanne Nov 2023

It was our first time attending a class like this at Art play, we were privided with all the tools and had the team on hand to guide us where needed. It was such a great activity that was fun but also relaxing, we will definitely be looking to do some more in the future!

Niamh Nov 2023


The class and teacher were fab! She had a great sense of humour and made the whole group feel at ease allowing us all to settle in quickly. She was really good at explaining everything we needed to know and helped us when we needed an extra hand! I'd definitely recommend this class to anyone looking for a fun filled activity and even better that you can take your ring home on the night! Thank you, I will be back :)

Would really recommend We booked the 3 hour unguided session as we wanted to do our own thing, and it was a great set up. There were lots of other things going on, such as candle making and a clay class, so it made for a really nice creative and lively environment to be in.

Such a great class. The mindfulness practice at the start was wonderful and the teacher set a great pace with the class - we’d definitely book again.

Katie Muniz Iglesias Nov 2023


Super great atmosphere, the staff was incredible friendly and all materials were provided, free flow is clearly more independent but the ambience is perfect for it. Everything was in great conditions i loved it.

Painting class review by Katie Muniz Iglesias - London

Edward Gibson Nov 2023


V.Good.
- It is a directed class though you are more than free to do what ever you want during the session. You won't know what you will be painting until you get there and so if you book on a holiday you may well be given a holiday themed session.
-
- Pizza was lovely (you will just be given it at the beginning of the session)

Eshita Goel Nov 2023


Had an amazing time! Super friendly staff, good quality paints/brushes and canvas. Enough time to complete a painting and let it dry!
Highly recommend and the atmosphere is very positive and friendly

Andrea Hernandez Nov 2023


Amazing experience at the hand building pottery class! Bought this as a birthday present for my bestie and she had the absolute best time here. Class started on time and was kept small which helped to get the most out of it. Instructor was knowledgeable in her subject and was easily accessible to help anyone who needed it, as well as guiding us in making our bowls. All materials were provided including the aprons which is something you don't think you need but comes in handy! The clay was great to work with and you could tell it was not something from the store but more higher quality. I only wish the class had been a bit longer and we'd had some more time to work on our creations and maybe do some freestyling because I really enjoyed it! The best part was having the choice to pick up our creations later that day, as we had other activities booked and couldn't take the bowls with us but also couldn't come back 5 days later to pick them up so thank you staff for allowing us to come back later for these.

The teacher Abby was really lovely, and amazing at painting. She gave good direction to recreate the artwork, and was also super helpful to anyone who went rogue with their own designs! Handled well with a large group

Tara Nov 2023


Had the best time, so happy we finally decided to book and do the class. The instructor was great, so happy with the painting they chose for the day, he was great and leading but also letting us be creative. The Prosecco didn’t stop flowing, they were great at coming round to fill up and I can’t wait to do another class soon, highly recommend!

Maeve Boffey Nov 2023


I booked a private class for a few people at my office and they absolutely loved it, they wanted to book another class.

Gale Roque Nov 2023


Went for the Upcycling canvas option - really lovely space, materials and staff who give you the space to release your inner creative!

Luxury Hot chocolate is also luxurious (hint: it's chocolate bits melted in milk) and great in this weather

Luisa Fulcher Nov 2023


Really good class and the teacher Sara was amazing. Very calm and knowledgeable about silver clay. I didn’t have any experience linked either to jewellery or art, but I got inspired by Sara ideas.

Anonymised ClassBento student Nov 2023


Very enjoyable class! Our teacher is very passionate and energetic. The class is a great way to relax and spend time with friends!

Denna was an incredible teacher and created such a welcoming, comforting atmosphere. She was funny, patient and kind. We had a really lovely group which made the experience even better. 10/10 would recommend.

Magdalena Golban Nov 2023


The teacher was very friendly, great atmosphere and even with no talent the painting will come out great!

Charles Carter Oct 2023


Great time, great teacher, great class. And we got to make a cool ring we can keep forever. Dad jokes were also on point.

Svetlana Savina Oct 2023


We liked the master class, it was interesting and pleasant. I would just like to have more opportunities to choose a pumpkin. We liked the teacher, a very nice girl. I understand that we are given space for creativity, but maybe I would like a few more hints and observations at the very beginning, since it was scary to make a mistake (for example, to cut off the top of a pumpkin wrong).

Sonali Oct 2023


We had a great time making collages! It was nice to have the space and materials to be creative and feel in the flow. The session was unstructured so we didn’t have a teacher and we were given magazines to use for our collages. We wills definitely come back again :)

Overall the class was amazing and I would definitely do it again.

Lingjin Kong Oct 2023


free flow painting class is flexible and relaxed. I may book another session in the future

Julia Champion Oct 2023


My sister enjoyed this, but there was no teacher and noone leading the class and there weren't really enough materials (glue and magazines and paper to cut up). We could have done with a big of inspiration!

Kuldeep Khera Oct 2023


The team leading were very helpful and knowledgeable, providing a safe, clean and fun environment.

After seeing a tiktok video I decided to try this out and absolutely loved it! The atmosphere is great and it's really simple/ easy to get started. I will say though maybe if they had a sign for when guests come to know where to go because its a little confusing If you've never been. So like maybe a "please wait here' and someone comes to take your booking. £18 for 3 hours is amazing. Love it and will be coming here often.

Katy Phipps Oct 2023


We were not told in advance that we would be drawing a Halloween themed picture. We chose the date on the basis we would be drawing something we wanted to take home.

Blanca Tebar Oct 2023


It was soo good! All materials are provided and the vibe is incredible:)) 100% recommend!

Rhea Sood Oct 2023


The concept was great however there is a lot of noise and so many people trying to follow one guide and do one painting. Some people who were there did sip and paint so were drinking however I was expecting a calmer environment in smaller groups as it was a guided and really difficult to hear the guide.

Chiara Vuolo Oct 2023


Sophie, our teacher, was great! So helpful and nice, lovely to chat with!
The class itself was great, had so much fun, it was my first time pumpkin carving and I loved it!

The atmosphere was great! Plenty of paint and brushes to use. We had a fantastic time. We did the guided painting class but decided to paint our own ideas. It would have been useful to know beforehand what the class painting would be, as we did not want to paint Frankenstein (Halloween theme). If I knew beforehand, I would have booked for the cheaper, unguided class. I ended up using a you tube video to paint a scenic picture which I could hang in the house. My daughter did her own sunset themed painting we also now hung up at home.

Kanshika Goel Oct 2023


My friend and I had a lot of fun in the pumpkin carving workshop! Our instructor, Jamie was really sweet & helpful.

Katie Moir Oct 2023


Great painting experience here. The staff are all really friendly and welcoming. A good mix of people, both groups and singles. Glasses were kept well filled with prosecco. I haven't painted for over 25 years and have never used acrylic paint before, the instructor was helpful with tips. I would definitely go again for another painting session.

Julie-Anne Guyett Oct 2023


Great venue snd fun idea concept The arm knitting blanket was great fun but we struggled to hear tutor due to a very loud and noisy adjoining art group. The toilets were also very poor ( ladies had two out of order and the third had no lock on door plus wash basins were also covered in paint)
Over all fun evening

Absolutely amazing place, an oasis in such a busy Spitalfields market, but it fits there so well. Me and my 11 year old daughter went for collage workshop. Staff member Dawn was very helpful. All the materials were supplied. Good but not too loud music. We had such a good time there. And already have plans to come back for different art lessons.

Very fun art workshop and we really enjoyed the free flow painting. The staff were readily available and very friendly throughout. We left for a short while for the painting to dry and came back to collect later and the staff were very accommodating of this for all groups I saw. Would thoroughly recommend it! Thank you!

ArtPlay was a wonderful day out for me and my wife. Everyone was incredibly friendly (shoutout to Abi!), and the whole atmosphere was so relaxed and serene. It was a really lovely way to spend a few hours together. The materials were high quality and everything was very user friendly, even for two complete beginners like us.
Thanks ArtPlay!

Anonymised ClassBento student Oct 2023


This was my first time at this event, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The teacher was helpful and great at guiding us through the lesson, from giving us an image to painting along with us. That was helpful for me as I had no clue what I was going to draw and how I would do it. The venue was a little loud because other classes were going on, so it was hard to hear from the teacher at times. It's a great place to do something different and unwind. I'd come back to try out some of the other classes.

Maizey Oct 2023


Was fantastic and the teacher was very helpful and friendly :) would recommend and come back here again

Melanie Tarizzo Oct 2023


No teacher for the collage workshop but it was still very nice and relaxing. Thanks!

Katty Espana Oct 2023


a little disappointed as when I purchase the voucher it stated bottomless prosecco, however when we got there, we only got offered 1 glass to then find out we only get a welcoming glass, clearly false advertisement. I asked for some water and got ignored. I bought the ticket as a birthday present for a friend, the bottomless prosecco was part of the experience which we never got to have, the painting was ok.

Teacher's response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Katty. We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations in regards to the bottomless prosecco. We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience caused. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and we will ensure that our advertising is clear and accurate.
our bottomless prosecco classes are on Fridays and Saturdays and we haven't advertised Mondays sip and paint for bottomless prosecco.

Glad you had fun painting and hope to see you at one of our bottomless prosecco classes next!

Love
Team Art Play!

Great setting. Kids did a canvas upcycling painting session, as a group of 5-8 year olds. Really enjoyed and could take their art home. Had some issues booking, this could be improved. Otherwise, many of the kids and parents will be back.

It was an amazing, fun and nice painting session. The only thing was the quality of the mic/sound made difficult to understand the teacher, especially at the back, with all the noise it was hard to understand what she was saying but she was guiding us through everything in a very clear way and she was also very supportive answering questions and giving us advice. Highly recommended

Anonymised ClassBento student Oct 2023


Very chill and lovely time! Trendy location and patient teacher. Have recommend to friends already!

Lauren McCall Oct 2023


My friends and I had so much fun at our painting class! Abby was an amazing instructor and really did a great job of explaining color theory and was so friendly to everyone throughout the class.

The teacher was excellent, she showed us exactly paints we needed to mix and the order in which to paint. Nice venue in the centre of Old Spitalfields Market, lots of buzz and noise. Great atmosphere, but probably aimed more at small groups than solos.
You don't have a choice before the session of what is painted, would be better if the booking said what the painting was going to be.

So that's a win!

Simon was our teacher. He was really encouraging and very patient ☺️. The venue was bright and in the centre of Spitalfields with a really buzzing atmosphere. All materials were included. Generous free flowing Prosecco. There was no rushing out the door at the end. A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon - way surpassed my expectations and would highly recommend to others!

Ana Sokolovic Oct 2023


I booked this class as a present for my mum's birthday and she said that it was one of the most amazing gifts that she has ever received. Sara is the best instructor I've ever had. She is super knowledgeable about metal clay and helped us achieve the exact look that we wanted. She is also really kind, friendly and very passionate about her work. I would highly recommend this class and Sara as an instructor. I will definitely be doing more classes with her in the near future.

Madika Oct 2023


Great experience at a good price, the staff was lovely so friendly and helpful
The space is quite small but they do the best with the space they have, would have been better to have more colours available as some were unable to be used as they didn't have enough paint in them but there are o there colour options available

I booked this for me and my partner and we both loved it, plenty of time to have a great date! The hot chocolate was amazing, would definitely recommend and go again!

Melissa Tan Oct 2023


It was a free flow painting class, so there were no dedicated "teachers" per say. But I loved how friendly all the staff were, and how patient they were with me to help me get started (I haven't painted in 10 years and was completely lost and felt very out of place at first!). Lovely non-judgemental environment and would definitely go again!

Hi, I had booked myself for the free flowing painting workshop with Artplay. It’s located in middle of the old spittlefield market. It is a great place to spend a relaxing afternoon painting and sipping some tea with friends & family. All painting material is provided and is quite spacious (busy too). Much recommended if you are looking to spend a fun day in East London!

Princess Joy Jimenez Oct 2023


Really enjoy it there, came on my birthday with friends and didnt regret it. Super chill since it was an unguided painting workshop and they provided all the supplies we needed to help ourselves to reasonably.

I would love to go again sometime :)

We were a small group so ended up talking a bit with each other as well, it was all in all a lovely evening, and so were the candles we made!

This was a fun class in a great location in the middle of Spittlefields Old Market
Abbey gave great instruction it was relaxed and informal with all materials provided.
With no pressure to create a masterpiece everyone is very supportive. Be aware that the room is busy and loud so if you’re looking for a quiet space then it probably isn’t for you. I really enjoyed the class and would highly recommend. Also, you can make a day of it when you leave with a trip around the market, fab stalls and great food choices

What fun went with 2 girlfriends to just chill & paint Loved it . we did the free style where there is no teacher and you just paint using their paints … Highly recommend doing this Am defo going again.

Katie Newton Oct 2023


First time here so was a little unsure what to expect, i had the unguided session booked. Upon arrival i was shown where the paints,brushes etc were and then it was a free for all on where to sit, later on this would prove to not be ideal as they had to move people around to accomodate a class. The overall atmosphere was really positive maybe a little loud and chaotic at times but nothing that would stop me comimg back! Lots of paints to pick from, brushes were a bit beat up but usable. I was very happy with the outcome of my painting despite being a beginner and id definately come back for a guided session. I think am improvment could be made by maybe providing a few more material options such as markers,sponges, stencils etc

It was a great fun! It is really nice to find out what you are able to and make new friends here. The teacher was super helpful and talented. I also love the coffee there too! Will definitely go back again.

Nina Oct 2023

Emma White Oct 2023


Lovely class, high quality materials and the teacher had good knowledge. We really enjoyed it as a hen activity! Catered for all ages and tastes. We are looking forward to picking up our candles and seeing the finished product!

Jona Gjoni Oct 2023


A truly colourful experience! It was fun and educational as Luca the teacher was instructing us to use the paint and brushes accordingly whilst the prosecco was flowing on and on by very friendly and smiley staffit was great and worthy, I'll definitely return for more! It can get addictive and it was a very quick 2 hours (immersing inside the world of our canvas!). Keep it up! My friend loved it too and we will book our next session soon!

We had such great fun and such a reasonable price, highly recommend. Will definitely be back again :)

Awesome and enthusiastic artist leading the session, prosecco was flowing, really great vibes! My friend and I had the best time :)

Rebecca Oct 2023


Brilliant class, Abby was fantastic. Talked through everything. Great atmosphere and lots of dog treats So lovely to support an amazing charity by doing something fun and creative.

Leah Bryant Oct 2023


There wasn’t anyone to greet us, we had to ask someone behind the bar to help us find our equipment and explain what to do!

Fun venue, great tips and tricks from the instructor, the time went so quickly. Would take another class.

Emily Oct 2023


The venue was a lovely space in the heart of spitalfields Market. There were lots of other classes and activities going on, which was great, however did not provide the most calm or mindful space for collage. I found the materials were a bit sparse although the lovely staff found me a few more magazines and overall I made a lovely collage. Will be back as next time I hope there will be more people doing collage as well.

Vicky Phillpott-Clark Oct 2023


We loved it! Our art instructor was great and all the staff very friendly and helpful. I booked the event as a birthday gift for my friend who likes painting, I’ve never painted but I enjoyed it more than I thought I would.

Vyshnavi Chandrabalan Oct 2023


The experience was worth the money! We really enjoyed it painting. It was fun and therapeutic.

Good amount of utensils

When asking questions one host seemed slightly rude/dismissive.

Great course, perfect amount of time to complete the rings, really lovely and friendly teacher

Sultana Oct 2023


I attended an unguided painting class and I couldn’t recommend it enough! Really great value for money and a really fun afternoon/evening. If you are looking for something fun to do by yourself, with friends or are looking for a relaxing activity - this would be the one! The venue (Spitalfields) is lovely and all materials are provided. You don’t need to be any good at painting to attend. Can’t wait to go back for another class!

Had a great time! Place was busy with different classes going on. A good place to have a paint :)

Erica Oct 2023


I initially booked this class as a birthday present for my best friend, and it ended up being, I quote, "one of the best birthday gifts she had ever received". The prosecco was delicious, and our teacher, Abi, facilitated the nicest, most peaceful, and most encouraging evening (considering neither I nor my friend are visual artists). Abi started off the class by showing us basic techniques for painting with watercolour and then essentially left us to our own creativity, occasionally checking in to answer questions, share examples to inspire us, and commenting in the kindest and most encouraging way on what we had created. The evening was such a peaceful, fun escape from the hustle and bustle and stress of London. I couldn't recommend more

Aimee Staniford Oct 2023


The teacher was amazing! So warm and welcoming. The workshop was brilliant and it felt like a nice community. Would 100% recommend to anyone who is interested!

Xav Sinden Oct 2023


Really great teacher, loved the experience, would definitely recommend. Great gift for someone you love.

Cindy Combs Oct 2023


The teacher was very spirited and knowledgeable. She took time to check each participants work at every step of the process.

Anonymised ClassBento student Oct 2023


My cousins and I had a great time
Laughing, painting what we wanted and doing something a little different together making memories.

Thank you we will be back I am sure :)

I just wanted to give a big shout-out to Abi for the awesome time I had in the painting class! It was seriously so much fun, and I can't wait to do it again. Abi, you and your dog rock, and your class was the highlight of my day!

Maria Lingis Oct 2023


I attended not only my first class at Art&Play but also my first portrait class ! It was a very positive experience. (Abigail) the instructor’s guidance was exceptional, lots of time and patience. Abigail’s work is truly inspiring. I feel I have learnt new things, conquered fears, improved my skills, gained confidence, and left with a piece of art I have pride in! Highly recommended and I will be back

Sara Valle Oct 2023


It was really fun! I went with a few friends to celebrate a friends birthday and we had a great time. They give you a lot of freedom so you can design whatever you like and you can ask questions and get help if need be. I’d just say that it’d be great if they had a microphone because it was hard to hear at times – lots of noise around.

Sara de Angelis Oct 2023


It was a very nice experience and atmosphere was great overall! Would highly recommend to anyone!

Ashka Chauhan Oct 2023


We really enjoyed this experience! The venue was great and the teacher was good, giving hints on techniques and how to use brushes and mix colours. The sip and paint Prosecco was decent as well, not the kind that will leave you with a headache! There was a lovely atmosphere and the whole experience was fun and therapeutic!

Robert El-Shafi Oct 2023


Was an amazing 3 hours, we really enjoyed the atmosphere, paint was well stocked and all you need.

Staff were very freidnly and couldn't have been more helpful, even giving us an extra canvas for our daughter when realising it was her birthday.

All in all 5 stars for the experience and the all round activity and vibes.

Thank you

Maureen Taylor Sep 2023


My daughter in law and I attended one of the sessions and it was brilliant! The drinks were flowing and the vibes were absolutely lovely. We had such a wonderful time and will be booking another session soon.

Alice Reed Sep 2023


I’ve been to two unguided free flow painting classes now, last week I was with Dawn and yesterday with Olivia. Both workers were very friendly and helpful, Dawn gave me advice for mixing a skin tone shade which I greatly appreciated Art play is a real east London gem with a nice laid back vibe, all the equipment you need is readily available in abundance and I think the free flow painting sessions are extremely good value. I’d never tried painting before but it’s soooo much fun and I can’t wait to come back again. Thank you art play for helping me discover a new hobby

Anonymised ClassBento student Sep 2023


The teacher was amazing and I got to learn so many new skills! Looking forward to collecting my bowl and getting it painted.

However for a singles event it was only women and no men, this maybe would work better as a LGBTQ event tbh I say this as someone who's part of the LGBTQ community

Emily Harbach Sep 2023


Really fun evening. Abi was a great teacher and helped even the least artistic amongst us (!) produce a great autumnal landscape. Will definitely be coming back!

Sofia Sep 2023


It's a beautiful huge light space with lots of free supplies to get creative.
We went for the upcycling session which is freestyle. It's amazing value for money and a generally fun time spent.

Anna Kowacka Sep 2023


The teacher was great. She was very straight to the point but in a friendly manner which I liked. Materials were good. I do wish there was maybe a little more variety as the class wasn’t cheap but overall me and my friend had a very good time.

My boyfriend and I took the silver jewellery workshop with Sara. We had such a great time! Sara was extremely passionate about her craft and it was a pleasure learning from her we honestly couldn't have hoped for a better teacher. The 2 hours flew by! We will 100% be coming back to make some more pieces.

My partner and I went to art play Sunday afternoon. What a great experience and a lovely idea for a date! We done the free flow painting, can be as creative as you want followed up by a bottle of wine :)

Everyone was so helpful! We will definitely be back soon to try the other services you offer :)

Really great fun, rings came out amazing. Teacher was super nice, welcoming and very helpful and patient. Had a great time and will 100% go again

Svetla Georgieva Sep 2023


The venue is very spacious and artistic. Perfect for children and parents to join. Aprons were provided to protect the clothes. Very friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Our children were well guided during the process of clay preparation and used their imagination to create their first clay figures. We are coming again for more

Jayde Sep 2023


I went to ArtPlay for a Sip and Paint session with friends this past weekend and it was such a cool experience. We love our paintings and the instructions were really clear. The only negative thing, was that I was under the impression that it was more of a private class but it wasn’t, it was very busy with a lot of others who weren’t in the group for casual painting, which caused it be quite loud. For the price you pay, I would of expected it to be more private, however this may of been a mistake by me not reading up on it properly. Would definitely do it again though and would recommend!

Sip and Paint Class review by Jayde - London

Femi Sep 2023


The session was great, our teacher was so engaging and interactive and got me painting like Van Gough by the end.

I did think the session was pricey initially but the sound of “pop” very 10 or so minutes soothed my fears as my glass was never empty.

Great experience all round!

Good instruction from the teacher, but also left room for our own interpretation of the painting. Friendly staff. Plenty of drink top ups! Nice venue.

Rukiya Sep 2023


Really enjoyed doing the free flow painting. It’s a very relaxing activity to do alone or even with a friend. Dawn showed us around and made sure we had everything we needed to have the full experience. Had an amazing time and I’m definitely planning to go back soon!

We had a great time at our painting class. Our teacher, Sophia, was really skilled and made the whole process easy and enjoyable. All materials were provided and it was all round a fabulous evening!

Vanisha Sparks Sep 2023


Nice set up but for the free flow painting, I was hoping to at least have people on hand to help guide a little or to give support and tips if needed. The sip and paint looked fun but I’d recommend lowering the price if you’re just offering just a small canvas and paints.

Alison Bowers Sep 2023


Sam was such a good, patient teacher and we love our rings —thanks very much.

Tatiana Sep 2023


I attended the mindful hands pottery class and really enjoyed it. Our teacher, Sorcha, was so lovely and took her time demonstrating and helping those who needed it. I hadn’t done pottery since I was in primary school so it was a very nostalgic experience and overall very fun and and relaxing. I’d definitely recommend this class! I can’t wait to try the other classes.

Lovely airy venue that provided a good choice of materials. Paints can be mixed, despite, as some reviews say, colour range being limited - mixing them is part of the fun! I attended the unguided session and got the peace and therapeutic benefit from painting, which is why I chose to do it.

My sister and I came for a day trip to London and we found Artplay online to do for the day. We really enjoyed our time in Artplay! It was such a chill vibe and you get so much supplies that you can use. The staff member, Olivia, was really friendly and welcoming. Overall it was a 10/10 experience.

Amazing Such a lovely experience and grey staff :) can’t recommend enough, great day out!

Sandra Wenas Sep 2023


First time painting and won’t be my last!

The teacher and restaurant staff were friendly. The space for the workshop was nice. There were seven of us so the teacher could give each of us enough attention.

Painting class review by Sandra Wenas - London

Anonymised ClassBento student Sep 2023


The space was really warm so everyone on my table was sweating.
The teacher was really nice but we couldn’t see the example painting we were all meant to be looking at.
There were a lot of helper/employees from the start but half way through almost all of them disappeared to another class and it was just the teacher having to not only teach the class but also make sure everyone was okay, answered questions, topped up paints and material. And it was a group of about 30 people.

We were told it was busier than it usually was. By the end of the class we all just kind of winged it and it was a bit of a rush.

Fun experience, friendly people but not super organised.

Hajar Raouf Sep 2023


I booked a session for my 5 year old daughter and her best friend. They had a great time and I’m tempted to try it for myself soon.
It’s a spacious venue, very welcoming staff. They provided us with everything needed and best thing they had a coffee bar with great choice of hot and cold drinks.

Anonymised ClassBento student Sep 2023

Jen Long Sep 2023

Parveen Bhatia Sep 2023


This is a really good experience and is definitely mindful. As a community mental health team - my team really enjoyed this class. Teacher was very friendly, good large location in Spitalfields which is east to find. good value for money and will definitely be booking another class there soon.

Very relaxing environment and a great way to wind down after work with some friends.

Niteesh Bharadwaj Sep 2023


Felt a bit rushed during the session and the teacher was not very helpful on most occasions when asked for suggestions/help. The teacher was painting with us but didn't necessarily care about how we could improve ours.

So, would definitely not recommend if you're amateur thought the description says otherwise.

Too pricey for the kind of experience we had.

Atirola Owadayo Sep 2023


This is such a great activity for people of all ages. The workers were very nice, accommodating to everyone's needs, made sure we all felt safe and encouraged us no mater our artistic skills. Definitely planning to go back with an even bigger group!

Katrin Sep 2023


We had a really good time at the class. The instructions from Denna were clear and helpful. We love our ring and wear it everyday. Sadly our class was a little bit overbooked and so we had to wait in between every step for quite some time, but you can buy drinks at the venue and sweeten the waiting time in that way.

Felicia Meyerowitz Sep 2023


Brilliant and highly recommended ! We came for a wonderful friend’s birthday and my 10 year old - we all loved it? Thanks Xorica (apologies re spellign!) would def do again loved the energy and buzz of the venue

Sian Hodgson Sep 2023


Good space set up with good quality tools.
Teacher was fun and engaging and came round to give tips to those who wanted. Was very surprised that I actually managed to paint what I was supposed to!

One note, the bar woman had zero customer service, didn’t see her smile the whole time. Any question I asked she seemed annoyed and shocked that she had to answer.

Anonymised ClassBento student Sep 2023


Very friendly staff and a great activity for the evening! Thank you for the session!

Mai Sakaguchi Sep 2023


I did free painting for 3 hours which was so much fun. There were lots of painting stuffs such as tons of acrylic paints, brushes, aprons, pencils, rubber, easel stands, and so on. I really enjoyed freehand painting.

Hello we have only had time now to send you this review as the girls had to prepare for going back to school etc.
Both girls and the lady who accompanied them thoroughly enjoyed their Ring making experience and informed us that the teacher was very patient and helpful during their lesson; they worked with silver, learned how to beat it into designs and shape and created their own rings which they were proud to show us as being "all their own work"!
The location in near Spitalfields was quite easy to find as you had provided clear directions and nearby points of reference.
We will recommend this class to others as a fun activity to do in that area.

Kate Wong Sep 2023


The venue was amazing! The studio provided all the paintbrushes, supplies, and canvas we need plus more! The staff were so friendly and they even let us stay a little bit overtime to finish up our art work. Overall, we had an amazing time and time just flew by in 3 hours :) Thank you so much and I had a great experience! I already told all my friends about this!

Shamim Baikie Sep 2023

We booked onto the Guided Painting Class and our teacher (Apologies I think her name is Ira or Isla) was amazing! She guided us through each stage on painting lemons and it was effortless, easy and simple instructions, leaving us feeling happy with our masterpieces!
It was in a nice space with other painters around us, we mingled a couple other people booked onto the session and it was such a relaxed vibe. The teacher was also super cool. I highly recommend to go, I would come back again!

Our teacher Aija was amazing and very good at explaining step by step what to do. It was such a good experience and would love to book more classes with you in the future! x

Such a great class. The teacher was wonderful, hilarious dad jokes. The space was great, loved having a cold beer whilst making the rings. Now I have a cute little ring that I made and get to keep forever. Highly recommend

Stephen Sep 2023


Our teacher was great, really enjoyable environment. Much more than we could have expected so thankyouu

Sara Trevelyan Sep 2023


The welcome and introduction was without enthusiasm and care taken with it all was minimal. I wasn’t shown aprons or told to wear one - consequence of paint squirting everywhere was that I ruined t shirt, trousers and shoes! Acrylic paint very difficult to remove so care should be taken with beginners not familiar with the space. The attendant did give me a refund which I appreciated but showed no interest otherwise in our experience- a bit disappointing overall. The concept is great but it would help if delivered with more enthusiasm and joy!

Xuan Boh Sep 2023


The teacher was awesome, and the class was really enjoyable! She gave us lots of tips to make our painting the best it could be. Highly recommend!

Alivia Sep 2023


My sister and I had so much fun taking part in this class. It was easy enough for beginners, and Luca was a fun teacher

I took my niece and nephew to try this class after just having been a day earlier for the sober sip and paint and being extremely impressed by the lovely venue, teacher and pace of the workshop.

The graffiti one was good also, originally we were supposed to do caps but did canvases which turned out good. I do feel an hour is a bit short of time to get through it all, however we were given the time to stay and finish beyond the class timing which really helped and the teacher was really encouraging and supportive. The kids loved and so did I, a great way to tap in to your creativity

Wasn’t sure what to expect but it was great The instructor Sophia was very helpful, and we really enjoyed the two hours painting our lemon branch. I would definitely recommend and keen to try other classes too.

Rebeca Nagy Sep 2023


Great class - the teacher was super patient even with lots of requests from the group and a few prosecco fuelled accidents. She had a lot of tips and kept things calm and enjoyable.

The venue was good but it was very hot because of the weather so a few fans would've been great. The rest of the guys working there were super attentive though with drinks etc and the atmosphere was fun.

A lovely little activity to do on a Saturday night!

Natasha Ngoma Sep 2023


the Team at TMK really enjoyed their session with Abi, thank you so much for making everyone so welcomed and eased any worries they had.
Such a benefit to have a four legged friend running around, especially for those that were a bit anxious at trying to create a masterpiece.
Thank you so much, from all at TMK

Ana Travers Aug 2023


The environment was great , the staff was very nice and friendly and the materials perfectly adequate for collage. I just couldn't believe that, even though,the price for this activity was so low, I was the only one enjoying this wonderful and relaxing craft that is collage.
Any way, just being in an stimulating environment made me discover new ways of making collage.
I highly recommend and if you can bring a friend, even better!

Hannah Balogun Aug 2023


This art class was amazing and so inspiring I've always wanted to do a painting class and this exceeded my expectations. Our teacher Sophia was great at explaining and taking us through the steps and so lovely and patient with us. The materials were good quality and it was my first time painting on a canvas but my result was surprisingly better than I thought it would be! I was very proud of my painting of a vine of lemons. I definitely recommend and will be booking another class in future.

David Priest Aug 2023


We originally booked for an immersive class that was due to start at 8pm, only to be emailed at 6:40pm that we had been moved to a 7pm class. With no other warning or communication we were unsure if this was in error and had no way of getting up to the class in time for 7pm. We arrived at 8pm as planned and were told that the venue would only be open for another hour, in which we could do our own thing and paint if we wanted.

The staff were very apologetic and friendly, I'm grateful they made accomodations for us but considering we had paid for a fun teaching experience, we were just left to our own devices and were left quite frustrated and disappointed.

Melina Aug 2023


My friends and I could not recommend this space enough!

Whether you’re alone in search for a great relaxing space to escape the hustle environment of the city, or if you’re looking for a wholesome and engaging activity to share with your friends and/or family! The location is perfect, right in the heart of East London surrounded by delicious, unique food spots including Spitalfields Market.

It’s easy to find, very reasonably priced, and they offer a range of materials and tools to use! The team were so accommodating and happy to help :) A pleasant way to relax and express your creativity.

We hope to visit again soon and try another of their incredible activities! Thank you :)

I initially booked a collage class for myself and my daughter, however the confirmation email I was sent had the incorrect address and we were stood outside for 20 minutes. I called the organisers and they were very apologetic and kind enough to find an alternative class.

We then went to a guided painting class run by Abigal Yentis. The class was very enjoyable, Abigail made learning to paint very easy and at the end of the class we got to take the painting back home with us.

I would definitely recommend the class and look forward to attending more workshops.

From beginning to end we were ‘WOWED’ - you enter into a fun and playful atmosphere with happy faces and eager to teach teachers.
The quality of paint and materials was exceptional and tuition first rate.
Put this together with it being an organised event for a charity made it all the moser wonderful.
We will be back - and soon!

Anonymised ClassBento student Aug 2023


Bottomless Prosecco is really good value for money. However, it seems the acoustics are not ideal in the new studio. We could not hear the teacher very well although we were not sitting that far. So it was hard to follow the instructions.

Rubina Aug 2023


Simon's class was wonderful. He took the time to guide us as a group and one to one. The class gives you plenty space for us to explore, get lost in painting whilst the prosecco flowed generouly enough to skewer the eye a little. The painting session was really good fun.

Great workshop in a good location. Jenna was welcoming and fun making the whole experience relaxed and enjoyable. Everything was set up and ready to go. Instructions were clear, help was on hand and your progress was monitored and supported. My daughter and I came away with fab rings and we were really pleased with them. A great experience.
We learnt about sizing, shaping, soldiering, cleaning, shaping, adding texture/pattern. We were also given information about purchasing our own tools if requested.
Examples were available so you could see the possible outcomes. If anything didn’t quite go to plan, Jenna was great at fixing it.
Friendly workshop and one that we enjoyed.

Overall, super cute and enjoyable girly date. We are planning to come back!

I had a great experience at this class. Denna was a brilliant teacher, really engaging and took her time to make sure everyone had the assistance they needed. The steps were clear and easy to follow. The space itself is really easy to find, there's a bar so we were able to enjoy some wine whilst making our rings. There were even a couple of really sweet (calm) studio dogs wandering around.

I would 100% recommend this class to others looking to learn the basics or wanting a sweet keepsake.

Great experience for all ages and abilities!
Teacher showed us the basics to get us started and let us do our own thing while always being there to answer any questions or help.
Provided with a huge lump of clay that we didn't even get to finish using, with lots of utensils to use.
Was able to leave at the location to dry and pick up at a later date.
Great value for money and would recommended, I look forward to going back and trying other classes.

I went to a Guided Painting class led by Aija. I went by myself but it was a small class size (just 4 of us) and everyone was really friendly and encouraging towards each other. I don’t think I produced a particular great piece of art but it didn’t matter as I felt so inspired afterwards and will definitely be back for another session! Aija gave us tips and painted along with us but, at the same time, allowed us the freedom to do our own thing. She was very patient and encouraging. The venue has a lovely and lively atmosphere and I would highly recommend to anyone who, like me, hasn’t done any art in a while!

Poppy Seed Aug 2023


Very fun social activity but I found that the instructions were unclear. I thought it would have been helpful for the teacher to make a trey first so that we could follow in her lead but because the instructions were so unclear she was huddling and bustling around trying to help us rather than have us follow in her lead. We ended up making a lot of errors ourselves by trying to follow each other.

Would have been great to have all the instructions up front at the beginning of class, maybe printed out at the head of the table even, then repeated step by step through the process.

Veronica Aug 2023


Amazing experience, I really enjoy it. All materials were included, love the venue and the teacher was lovely.

Julie Martin Aug 2023


The session was really fun and chilled! We were able to follow along easily but we didn’t feel rushed. The teacher (Sophia) was really supportive with tips and tricks if we ever went wrong.

the place was great! the staff was very accommodating and friendly. some color paint had run out but it didn't bother us at all.

Anonymised ClassBento student Aug 2023


A very cathartic few hours can be had at Art Play, which is assuredly one of the more tranquil backdrops to spend an afternoon in London. Paints, brushes, canvases, and various other implements and decorative miscellanea are organised in a very orderly and accessible manner, which leaves only a certain degree of controlled chaos to convey on the canvas.

Aurora Airaskorpi Aug 2023


Teacher was great, the price (30 pounds) was just right and the atmosphere was nice

Denna was excellent! Full of Dad jokes and tips on how to avoid "interesting" mistakes while ring making. The setting and equipment provided were really professional but welcoming and easy to use. A lovely mixed group of people and I think we made the painting class a bit jealous because we were having so much fun.

A true family and inter-generational activity and excellent value for money. Would highly recommend!

Ramndeep Gosal Aug 2023


Sip and paint was such a great experience, the staff were excellent and really helpful (Simon and sorry can’t remember the bane of the lady). Extra paint, change of water and tissues were provided. I will certainly be recommending this class, thank you so much for a wonderful experience.

Teacher's response

Thank you, Ramndeep, for your lovely review! We're delighted that you had such a great time at Art Play. Thank you for choosing us and we hope to welcome you back soon for another wonderful experience.

Sandra Tung Aug 2023


Such a great activity - I've already been twice.
All material was provided so it's a good way to experience painting without having to buy all the equipment and supplies. The paintings are beginner friendly and the teacher was easy to follow. You get to top up the paint when you run out so not limited to what's given to you at the start.
The bottomless champagne was also truly bottomless. There is an assistant going around topping up glasses throughout the whole class.

Teacher's response

Thank you for the lovely review, Sandra! We're happy to hear you enjoyed your time at Art Play and we look forward to seeing you soon!

Asyia Ghafoor Aug 2023


Great experience. Had so much fun :)
Great venue, saw some amazing pieces of art!
Overall amazing experience

Teacher's response

Thank you for the kind review, Asyia! We hope to see you again soon!

Very poorly organised. We reached there however no one checked our tickets, so didn’t know what slot we booked on for. No one assisted to find any canvas paints. Just pointed us and said go figure it out. We paid for the bottomless experience but were not given a seat with the rest of the people. We sat behind with others so were so far from the man teaching. They didn’t know we needed Prosecco so received our first glass at 3:40 when the event started at 3pm. The lady sitting across us spilt her drink all over the table and us and no one came to help clean.
On a good note, once they gave us our first drink, they apologised for the delay and said they will ensure our drink is always topped up.

Really fun barbie themed sip and paint class! Great way to relax and spend time with friends

Jenna Hajee Aug 2023


We had the best time! Was so much fun and were guided well by Simon

Anna Godsmark Aug 2023


Simon was an amazing instructor and the bottomless Friday eve was such a fun alternative to our normal plans. Went with a bunch of friends and highly recommend!

Donata Peksa Aug 2023


Great session - Simon was very clear, helpful and thorough. The venue is very central and easy to get to. Has a great artistic and creative vibe about it. Prosecco was flowing generously and the ambiance was amazing. Great value for money - highly recommended!

Chan G Aug 2023


This was a really fun class and our tutor Simon was great. Overall a very fun experience. He was informative and fun. The Prosecco top ups were fantastic and really on the ball.

As for improvements, it seemed a bit disorganised. There wasn’t enough space to sit down and everyone was crammed in so much (more so in other sections). We almost weren’t able to sit together because of it. I do think this should be more organised with allocated seating so there aren’t any gaps and for safety and comfortablity reasons.

The easels were slippery and so quite a few peoples easels fell over. Thankfully no water was spilled. My plus ones paint brush came apart, so it would be good if there were better quality paint brushes (they were very old and frayed).

It would be good if new paint or water was brought around as it was difficult to get out of seats (over crowded) especially if you were in the middle and didn’t know anyone on the end who could have got it for you.

Belinda Artlett Aug 2023


My friends and I booked this on a time out deal and had a really fantastic night. None of us would say we are artistic but the teacher Simon was brilliant. He broke it down in a clear step by step process and our paintings were better than we thought they would be! The bottomless prosecco was a bonus and they were not shy on topping up our glasses. Overall great experience for the price of the deal.

Stefania Bonaccorso Aug 2023


Nice ambience, prosecco could be of better quality and teacher fantastic . He was able to make me draw a decent painting and I dont know how to draw. Amazing!

Super helpful staff with great communal area to paint in, very good length of session and lots of fun. Highly recommend.

Beth Thompson Aug 2023


This was great fun and would recommend the free flow to anyone who enjoys painting or wants to begin and get creative. The bar was a bonus and staff were friendly, but we had to get up and move halfway through painting to accommodate for a larger group. This could have been communicated better upon arrival to avoid disruption.

Overall a great day and a lot of fun, will be back :)

Sarah Chamdawala Aug 2023


Had a great time at the Art Play free flow canvas painting workshop! Aija and team were really helpful & accommodating. It was my birthday and they were nice enough to store the cake and bring it out for me at the end of the session :) Tried the salted caramel latte which was really yum! The venue was really nice, we loved the vibe! The materials provided were great too- all the acrylic paint we needed and more & a good variety of brushes. Overall a fun & relaxing experience, definitely recommend

The space where the workshop took place was full of art which made me feel good. On one side people painting and at the other end "jewellery makers" ahah. The teacher was really cool and explained well the whole process supporting you on any doubt. I enjoy art & craft in general and this was one more try in that vast field. The ring turned out really nice (I wish it was a bit wider so that the texture was more noticeable).
The material was included on the price. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Great two hours this afternoon =)

I really liked the experience, it was fun but also relaxing. All the materials were given and the teacher was helpful and nice.

Rochelle Rozasty Jul 2023


The silver ring making workshop was great. Very good value for money. Denna is a friendly, funny and knowledgeable teacher. The only down side, hence 4 rather than 5 stars was that the lighting in the space upstairs really was too dim for this kind of workshop. However it was fun and I left with a lovely silver ring I made myself!

Anu Abolaji Jul 2023


was a nice experience being able to paint, chill & have to opportunity to have a quick drink/snack at the bar. The team were there to help when needed but allowed you to be free/explore with whatever with the equipments + paints provided, i will deffo visit again!

Loved this class and will be going back. The teacher was so lovely and detailed each step really well so everyone was able to create a great piece even with limited/no experience. The studio had a great atmosphere and it was really relaxed. Though it was a guided painting class we were encouraged to add our own personal touches if we wished and at the start we had a choice of which painting the group would like to follow. At the end we were also allowed to go over time to finish up and if you don’t want to walk around London with your painting you can leave it at the studio and pick it up later. So reasonably priced for such a great time. Highly recommend.

Des Healy Jul 2023


We had such a fantastic time at Art Play We are a small team of 12 and decided to get creative for an afternoon. The complimentary glass of Prosecco was a really nice touch and our teacher Simon was so welcoming! As well as being a great teacher, Simon added some whimsy and fun and was great chat. We now have 12 vibrant works of art to brighten up our office. I highly recommend Art Play as a team social/bonding trip!

Elizabeth Armstrong Jul 2023


we were waiting at the door for ages before any staff member spoke to us. The lady in question had looked up at us multiple times and said nothing, as she was in normal clothes we didn’t know she was staff until we started wondering round to look for someone. It was a very odd experience.
No one was at the bar/coffee station so we didn’t know whether we could order drinks and the selection of collage material was limited.

Stephanie Adatsi Jul 2023


Venu was great. It was a calm and relaxing environment, with friendly staff. I will definitely be coming back!

Mark Turner Jul 2023


A great way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Art play is in a nice open, relaxed and quiet venue with ample art supplies. We signed up to the Free flow painting session where you simply select the colours you want to use, sit down and start painting exactly what you want. A supervisor was on hand to answer any questions and serve drinks. Thoroughly recommended if you enjoy anything creative and don't particularly to want to draw/paint something specific.

Rhea Kumar Jul 2023


I enjoyed my time doing the free flow painting. All supplies are provided and staff were polite and welcoming.

I had an 11am class, which started 20 minutes late unfortunately and the coffee machine was broken which was a bummer.

But besides these things, it was great value for money and I’m really happy with the art I got to produce.

The reservation was 7-10pm but we were told to leave as they were closing at 9pm.

Jennifer Winson Jul 2023


All good except for arrival experience! The address on maps is wrong and then the address in old shop window is also wrong meaning we went into a shop who had to tell us where to go.
The class itself if brilliant though! You need to arrive early to get seats together though.

Sarah Ezzeddine Jul 2023


Really happy there were non alcoholic drink options. Very inclusive . Thanks so much! Very nice

Bilashee Sadika Jul 2023


My 8 year old loved it and was done in 25 minutes. Bit pricey for kids though, there should be a different rate for younger kids.

Nausica Robinson Jul 2023


Great teacher, and was very friendly and helpful in creating the art piece. I have no experience in painting and was surprised on how good my work turned out. It was a very relaxing activity to do with the family. Great atmosphere, looking to book my next activity.

Really enjoyed this Paint and Sip class! Abby the instructor gave the right amount of direction while also letting us get on with the painting. I'm a novice when it comes to art so I did feel like I learned a few things.
Someone occasionally came round to top up our glasses of prosecco which was nice, and the art supplies provided were good and we received good advice on using them appropriately. A great evening, I would highly recommend.

Preena Daraji Jul 2023


I went to the free flow workshop, all paints and materials supplied. Really enjoyed using acrylic paint and happy with my work, haven't painted in years! You get to meet nice people there too. Thanks Art Play will be back again soon with some friends!

Lovely relaxing atmosphere. There was a variety of pottery pieces to choose from and the staff helped us pick something we were after. Well equipped with a variety of paints and even gloss for finishing. The session was pretty self-directed which was enjoyable as it allowed time to focus on the painting whilst still asking for help when required.

Wayce Wong Jul 2023


I really enjoy painting here as I learned different techniques in just two hours. The coaches are experienced and patient and the atmosphere is very satisfying. But the only thing to remind is that there may be too many people in the class and the air is very hot.

Irene Casas Jul 2023


We arrived 5 min late (our bad) and the class was already started even though it was only 5 min. The problem was that the class was supposed to last 1 hour and 15 min and after 45 min it was everything done, so we didn’t understand all the hurry at the beginning. Also, there was a lot of noise at the place, and it was a bit hard to follow the teacher. On a positive note, the materials were good and the terrariums look amazing!

Andrea Mills Jul 2023


Really great class, lovely informative teacher. Nice venue too. Only cons were seating and that the time of the class was changed really late the night before.

Miriam Rubinstein Jul 2023


Lovely experience in a great venue! Everything was set up and the teacher helped us where she could. There was enough time to at the end to individually carry on with the painting and we had a lovely time enjoying a glass of prosecco.

The substitute teacher had quite a hands off approach but other than that it was great

Phyllis Stephen Jul 2023


We had a lovely time - what seemed a daunting prospect became easy with a little quiet instruction from the lovely Abby. Peaceful zen way to get away from a computer screen. Just look for Lululemon - it really is right next door.

I contacted the company to ask if I can change the day I attend the lass to another day, and I did this more than a week before the class. They say they allow rescheduling so I thought this would be no problem but that was not the case. I called texted and even emailed the company and had no response. It appears they are more content in taking people's money than providing art classes. I would therefore avoid this company completely.

Really fun class with great instruction easy to follow along. due to the rain we had move into the Spitalfields Market venue which was great as there was a bar & plenty of amenities allowing you to relax 7 enjoy.

Michael Yap Jun 2023


Class was great and the teacher was amazing. The class was interactive and a good teambuilding activity.

Daisy Kyriakidou Jun 2023


My daughter had a fantastic time and made to feel very welcome, even though she was the youngest at 14. It was her first experience of life drawing. Abi is an excellent teacher, as was the model, Marz. Daisy came our feeling challenged and supported and would definitely do the class again Thank you!

Shirley Zhang Jun 2023


Really great class, very fun and interactive. Great atmosphere - would consider doing class again to make another ring!

Jan Haines Jun 2023


We were diasppointed to have our original choice (UV Paint & Sip) switched for the acryllic pour just hours before arrival. The teacher likely picked up on this, as she was very timid and uninspiring at first. However, once we started to play with the colours and see how it worked, the vibe did lift. She gave encouragement and pointers as we went along and everyone was happy with what they produced in the end. It was a fun hour, or so and I would recommend it to others but our group felt it was on the expensive side for what we did.

Hidaya Kharas Jun 2023


The workers were extremely welcoming and friendly. They were so helpful and kind as well! The class was super fun and affordable. Will definitely be coming back again.

Maximilian Stummer Jun 2023


I recently hosted my child's 7th birthday party at the ArtPlay Spitalfields, and it was an absolute delight! Abi’s enthusiasm and passion for art was contagious, creating a vibrant and engaging atmosphere. The beautifully decorated party room, personalized painting activities, and well-organized schedule made the experience exceptional. The kids had a blast exploring various art forms, and the parents could relax and enjoy themselves too. It was worth every penny, and I highly recommend the ArtPlay for an unforgettable and inspiring birthday celebration for young artists.

Denna the teacher was great, really interactive, managed to remember all 12 of our names instantly!
The class was very interactive and relaxed, demonstrations and then doing it yourself.
Would highly recommend as my girlfriend and I are very happy with our rings.
Quick tip - they’ve recently moved and are now next to lululemon.

Ziaur Rahman Jun 2023


Had great fun at this event - teacher really friendly and helpful. However, teething issues as venue was not at the address provided - had moved couple streets away. All punters were standing on street outside a locked door, until staff member decided to try and find us. Event didn't have great solos interactions- but was still very sociable event etc. Bit of fine tuning event as a singles thing will be great. Otherwise, I'm planning to go back to venue sometime with friends to do more art stuff in great location.

Rachel Rose Jun 2023


The teacher for the class was great and made us all feel really at ease. We learnt lots of new techniques for ring making and came home with a great ring we were really proud of. The directions on the booking sent us to the wrong venue which wasn’t ideal but we found the right space easily after being redirected. We really enjoyed our evening and what we got to create

Victoria Purcell Jun 2023


Had a lovely 'sip and paint' class on Saturday, teacher was friendly and patient and the process was really well done.

Said Hosseini Jun 2023


The teacher was nice, it was a free flow class so there wasn’t any tuition but she was regularly checking to see if we needed anything. 100% worth the cost and lovely atmosphere. My only criticism is that the venue had changed location but there is no note of it on the website and the front of the original building has no information stating the class has moved location. There was a note on the other side of the building but it took a while to find any information as to where the new venue was. Otherwise it was a brilliant experience that I would recommend to everyone to try at least once.

Emily Wester Jun 2023


Really fun and relaxed class in a great location in Spitalfields market. The teacher was very nice and patient with our somewhat rowdy group!

The class was fun and we were happy with our take home terrariums. It was a bit quick - we were done in 45 mins or so - and we would have enjoyed a bit more information about terrariums more generally (history/ plant care/ different types) as well as more chance to be creative with different options (only real choice was colour of stones).

Renata Finelli Jun 2023


Very nice experience. I had zero artistic side, but it was very nice to seat there, playing with colours and drinking a good tea. The place is stunning, and the people working there very friendly. Next time I'll visit again with my nephew.

Patricia Logan-Grady Jun 2023


Last minute change of venue (1 am email the night before) but, was willing to go with it because life happens.

Unfortunately did not get much value other than the candle that had a sinkhole.

Pleasant and friendly instructor. Lovely jars. Nice and plentiful dried flowers to decorate with.

However, instructor was not prepared for the number of attendees. We book advance. Why wasn't she?

Expected more from the class - something about the different types of waxes and why soy wax. Information about blending the essential oils. We had no idea. Nothing about how wax cools and about that sink hole.

Feeling let down.

Very friendly teacher and easy going class. Very helpful in giving directions to venue. Everyone was happy with the class and the terrariums we made!

Deesha Relwani Jun 2023


The class itself was fun and it was lovely to be supporting such a great cause. However, I believe it was advertised as a ‘bottomless’ class and we were only given one glass of Prosecco in the beginning and did not feel as though we could ask for more.

Jenny Guo Jun 2023


Great workshop and highly recommend. Instructor was very engaging and explained things very well. Left with a nice silver ring and look forward to attending more workshops!

Carmen Chong Jun 2023


Denna was a great teacher and so much fun! Would definitely recommend the class to anyone.

Kaavya Mohindra Jun 2023


The class was amazing with the sweetest instructor! Absolutely loved the vibe and we didn’t even realise how the 2 hours went. Clay was like therapy where we could create everything and anything.
Just a recommendation, some snacks and drinks by the table could be really helpful

Rosario Phillips Jun 2023


I recently attended a ring making class with my best friend and it was an amazing experience! Our teacher was incredibly helpful and made the class so enjoyable. We learned a lot and had a great time making our own rings. It was so satisfying to have something physical to take away from the class and remember the day. I'm in love with my new ring and don't want to take it off! I highly recommend this class to anyone who's interested in learning a new skill and having a fun time with friends.

Silver Ring Making Class review by Ben Watson - London

Rhiannon Riot Jun 2023


Unfortunately I had to cancel my booking the morning of, due to illness. This meant I didn't qualify for a refund, and I wasn't even offered a refund for the bags I'd prepurchased.

I was really disappointed with the customer service received; very short, one sentence replies.

I'd perhaps hoped for something like "oh I'm sorry to hear that, unfortunately we can't refund, but we're happy to offer a discount on another booking, and I'll arrange for a refund on the bags." It all left a pretty bitter taste, and I wouldn't book again because of the poor customer experience received.

An expensive illness for me it turns out! They have said they'll refund the bags now (which is like £3, but still, I paid for bags and don't have bags) so hopefully that will arrive soon.

I wasn't going to leave a review, but an email has prompted me twice, so I thought I'd leave my honest experience. It isn't their fault I didn't paint, but I wouldn't book again, which is a shame.

Jollie Wheeler Jun 2023


There was no sip! And we didn’t get our bags at the end, which I had already paid for…

I suffer with bad anxiety but really wanted to take this class. Denna was amazing, did everything she could to put me at ease (including bringing Digby the sausage dog). She was friendly, fun, funny and a very good teacher. I enjoyed the class so much I’m looking forward to attending another one. Denna made it so simple to make my own Sterling silver ring and I’m still so impressed that I was able to make it myself! I love it! Thank you :)

Caroline Frappart May 2023


This class was fun and affordable. I was a little disappointed because it said that it would last 2 to 3 hours but after exactly 2hours we were told to pack things up as there was another class booked. I was also confused with the instructions given regarding the painting part itself, which were very specific at first and then non-existent. Personally I would
prefer either full instructions or none at all. However overall I did really enjoy this class and it was very therapeutic! It's definitely a fun experience to do in London~

The classroom is pretty and the person in charge is really nice.
I would definitely recommend to check it out and I know there is many different things you can learn there.

Heloise Hoare May 2023

Teacher was great, went at a good pace for beginners and a lovely person. Learned some good techniques for impressionism using acrylic paint. Lovely studio, would be great if there was more space per person so we're not bumping arms. No problems with materials provided. Wish there was more interaction between students, every one just kept to themselves. There should be 8-12 week course available at a discounted rate with smaller class sizes - I'd pay!

Callan Matthews May 2023


Me and my girlfriend had the best time today honestly such a good time hearing Mars explain how to paint and what techniques but also creating a really nice and comfortable vibe for you to express yourself

Betul Kaya May 2023


I recently attended a painting class and it was an absolute treat. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and at ease. The instructor, Abbey, was a true professional and had a wealth of knowledge to share. Her explanations were clear and concise, making it easy to follow along and understand the techniques she was teaching.

What I appreciated most about Abbey was her ability to guide us through the class with patience and encouragement. She provided helpful feedback and suggestions while also allowing us the freedom to express our own creativity. Her passion for painting was infectious, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed sharing her skills with others.

Overall, I had a wonderful experience in the painting class and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and engaging way to explore their artistic side. Abbey was an exceptional instructor who made the experience even more enjoyable. If you're looking for a chance to unwind, learn something new, and create something beautiful, this class is definitely worth trying out.

Juanita George May 2023


Booked as part of my daughters 6th birthday party.

Upon arrival of guests, the host did not have command of the 12 5-9yrs, some children didnt have an apron on some did and there was no art "class" going on for the first hour. What took place was three areas set up for painting a canvas, colouring and play doh.
The children then organised themselves as there was no theme or coordination thoughtout the host stood behind the barista counter.

There was no circle time for 15minutes as advertised on the post.

Unfortunately I would not recommend the children’s birthday party but probably the space without the host as we felt we were hosting the birthday party ourselves and we were even handed a broom at the end.

Hannah Clynch May 2023


Teacher was really helpful - gave us the right level of instruction! I would book again. Only downside was booking time was changed last minute because of a “private booking” which meant we had to change our lunch booking etc

Imogen Tucker Apr 2023


A very nice concept but this was severely overpriced. The paints and brushes were very cheap and poor quality.

The class leader left all the participants waiting outside for 15 mins before letting us in. We then waited an hour until we were served, with several people hinting that we hadn’t been served any Prosecco or wine which were included in the ticket price.

The class was then ended about 25 minutes earlier than the original end time for us to clean our brushes so we could finish on time. Given the price of a ticket and how late the class started this was an outrageous request

Patricia Garcia Apr 2023


Amazing morning, super fun experience at Victoria park. Abigail was a great teacher. Absolutely worth the money for the experience!

Liz Macfie Apr 2023


We had great fun as a little group from work. Our teacher found the perfect balance between giving us helpful instruction and letting us play - thank you!

Sofia Sa Apr 2023


Venue was great, love the experience and it was my first time, and will do it again.
On the other side, I was expecting more communication from the teacher and for her to be more hands on with each person at some points during the process to teach more about technic, there was plenty of time to do it since there were a lot of moments of silence. Also, the brushes were not very good, they are very worn down.

We all left loving our rings, definitely a cute little experience :))

Amy Swindell Apr 2023


This was for a hen do.
Our teacher Abby was really good, took us through each step & guided us.
Venue was cool, spacious & the added bonus of a dog!
materials were provided & in good condition.
Could have been abit cheaper. Especially for bottomless prosecco & that we asked for a private class however, a couple of people joined in the room with us but no big qualm about that.
We painted the mountains & river picture.
Everyone had fun & it was a different experience.

Painting class review by Amy Swindell - London

Ashleigh Burns Apr 2023


Unfortunately our night didn’t quite go as originally planned. We were moved upstairs into a public space which was cold and with no alternative space to paint in. We had to ask cups for drinks and there was a lack of supplies available given that the set up was a “pop up” style away from the main event space. The girls weren’t set up for the correct number of people which meant a late start to our painting experience but an abrupt finish where a lot of the attendee’s felt rushed and unfinished in what they were working on. As we were situated next to a bar, the bar staff began packing away seating and literally pushed their way by our group which was unnecessary as we did not choose to work in that space. Some of us made the most of the experience however others left feeling understandably frustrated and disappointed due to the miscommunication, the unorganised set up and the lack of guidance throughout the painting session.

My 7 year old daughter had a wonderful time making and creating. The teacher was friendly too!

Alexandra Cruysen Apr 2023


Ran one of these workshops as part of my 6 year old son's birthday party. First hour workshop, second hour cake/snacks in the same location. The kids absolutely loved it. My son asked for a 'flying vehicle' theme and the teachers brought a great selection of crafts to build and/or paint rockets, planes, etc. The slime buckets were also a huge success. They were attentive and accommodating, and very friendly and fun with the kids (ages spanned 3.5 to 6.5). I'd definitely recommend for children's birthday parties, and I may take one or two adult classes as well.

There's a café one can order from while painting. Our host was lovely and she gave us some helpful tips to get started. Overall a great experience and a really fun activity for our Easter weekend. ❤️

Lovely experience of free flow painting when you just want to paint and need a space and material all provided for you!

Giulia Alfarano Apr 2023


Really relaxing experience to do alone or with friends, you create your own pot or shape, the teacher is there to help you if you have any questions. After you finish, you can bring your creation with you or leave it with them as it needs to air dry. You can then collect it after a few days and paint at home. We chose to leave it and collect later as we didn't want to ruin them during transport when they were not yet dry

Hannah Kelsall Apr 2023


We all really enjoyed the silver ring making class and we thought our teacher was brilliant. She was super friendly, encouraging and amazing at what she does. I think we all learnt a lot. The venue was large and bright and we were able to bring our own drinks and nibbles. We were provided with all the tools and support necessary to make our silver rings, and there was plenty of choice for our final designs. We all walked away very happy

I would definitely recommend this class! Thank you for such a special day.

Justine Christoforou Mar 2023


We went to Art Play for a candle making workshop for my friend's hen do. We managed to secure a private class for 8 of us which was lovely! The chosen activity was no more than 1.5hrs long but it was the right fit for our group and the location worked well, right in the heart of Spitalfields market (with lots of things to do around the area before and after). The studio was spacious, airy and with lots of natural light coming in. The instructor gave us a brief explanation about how to mix the essential oils which would form the scent to our candle and then we were allowed to explore and mix away. There was a variety of essential oils to choose from, as well as dried flowers and beads to use for decoration at the end. We were encouraged to wear aprons so as not to get messy, which was good. The workshop was relaxed (without too much pressure) in that we could chat freely whilst smelling and mixing essential oils, then decorating our candle jars. An added bonus was the fact that we were able to make a hot brew there, as well as bring our own fizz and snacks. At the end of the session, we came out with beautifully-looking-and-smelling candle jars and a mini candle each. A wonderful memento from the day of celebrations and a fantastic way to spend an afternoon! Thank you!

Bess Malik Mar 2023


I’ve been to many creative experiences in London and truly believe this was one of the best. From the humour and patient guidance of our wonderful teacher to the environment (a bright spacious studio in the heart of Spitalfields), this was an excellent way to spend a chilly afternoon in London and my sisters and I left with our (sterling silver) rings which we will likely cherish for years to come.

Danae M Mar 2023


I enjoyed going to this pottery class with my friend but had no idea you have to wait 5 days for the clay to dry and then return the following week to paint it.
Im sure it’s common knowledge but because this wasn’t mentioned on the website prior to me booking, I felt like I wasted my money because I’m unable to return the following week.

Juliana Ganendra Mar 2023


Teacher was friendly and helpful. Made a lovely ring to take home. Really would recommend!

One tip is that if you would prefer to have a smooth, unpatterned ring, tell the teacher at the beginning because it will affect the sizing!

Ruby O'Connell Mar 2023


We booked this for our work social and it was so much fun! There were some good warm up activities which we enjoyed the most and then we were given guidance on how to make a coil pot. I'd really recommend this for a team work event. Thank you for having us!

Fantastic day out for team building. We're a group of NHS workers and thanks to Art Play, are budding sculptors in the making.
Mindful pottery was such a therapeutic, fun activity that suited everyone, which is pretty hard to achieve in a big team away day. The teachers were really friendly, funny and supportive.
The space, materials and ambiance were on point.

Marjorielyn McKenzie Mar 2023


I really enjoyed the class and we had the flexibility of making and perfecting one piece or practising and making more pieces - I chose to make more pieces. The teacher was welcoming, friendly and helpful. Great atmosphere and would definitely recommend or even go again! Thank you. :)

The end result is cute, and there were definitely enough materials. I had fun making a terrarium. It was not crowded.
However, there was a significant lack of explanation and learning in this class. It felt like the instructors provided the materials and kinda left it there. I feel like a shopping list would have been just as useful. Questions I would like answered, such as why do one thing or another, tips for more or less successful terrarium making, which plants to choose, where to source the materials, why do these things work, etc. were not discussed.

The instructors were nice enough, but were not very focused on the class.

Teacher's response

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and we will take all your suggestions into consideration. We hope to see you again in the future.

Best,

I was happy with the materials provided; an apron, paints, paintbrushes and a decent sized canvas. The venue is a spacious studio with tables and benches to work on, and a clothes rail on the side for your coats. There was also a decent range of drinks and snacks available to purchase.
Overall, I liked the setup of everything and enjoyed my time which flew by!

We had a great time at ArtPlay doing the sip and paint class. We did a private event for 14 people. All materials were provided, the painting we did was fun and original and the resident artist was so great in leading us through the painting. We particularly loved that we mixed our own paint colours and everyone's painting turned out unique which was so much fun. We also loved the venue (Old Spitalfields market) and the relaxed atmosphere. It was also so nice to be able to bring our own food and drink, it's rare that you get that kind of flexibility from a venue and it made everything so easy. It was also really fantastic value for money. We all had a great time and everyone left saying they'd love to do it again!

This was an amazing class with a greatly patient and friendly teacher. We were left to our own accord, with guidance when asked for, which I thought was amazing as it added to the mindfulness of the class. When I was lost our teacher got me back on track with helpful tips and ideas. The organisers have created such a lovely space with everything you could possibly need to bring your ideas to life. My favourite part was decorating my creation!
Overall, a great experience at a very reasonable price, run and executed excellently. I’ll be returning for their other classes!

I went here with 3 of my friends who I used to go to art class with when we were teens. Brought so many great memories - the Prosecco made it fun too. But didn't need to drink much to have a good time. The teacher guided us through, giving tips and techniques along the way. And SO much encouragement, I felt like a true artist. Can't wait to check the other classes Art Play offer

Mel Mar 2023


I thought the teacher was very helpful but because there was a lot of us, I feel there could have been 2 teachers as she found it hard to keep up. The venue was lovely and though we had some great variation of different materials to use. I would definitely do this class again now I have an idea of what it is about.

Loved that I now have a plant to sit on my desk that doesn't need too much looking after. I would recommend this class.

Elias Hakimi Mar 2023


My partner and I had a really fantastic time at this class. Our instructor was energetic and bubbly despite the class starting at 11am, and dedicated a lot of time to ensure everyone in the class understood the ring making process and was comfortable. Would highly reccommend :)

I really enjoyed our Terrarium Making Workshop. Our teacher was great and talked us through step by step and helped us with our creations. We were provided with the Terrariums, different colour/size stones, soil, moss and small plants to put in our Terrariums. We took our own drinks and snacks to the venue too. Overall the Workshop was fun and we all came away happy with out creations and have them at home :)

Julie Cole Mar 2023


We all enjoyed the terrarium workshop. Everything was prepared and set out on the tables ready for our arrival. The tutor gave clear instructions and was happy to provide more stones, soil and plants. Most of us were pleased with the end result and now we are hoping to keep our creations alive. It was useful to be given some care instructions.
Communication for booking and paying for the event was excellent.

Denna is an incredible instructor. This is the second ring making class I have taken with her and it is a blast every time. Her sense of humour while providing detailed, careful instruction ensures satisfaction with every creation. I highly recommend this class to anyone looking to try making silver jewellery or crafting something with a friend!

Really enjoyed the class with Denna, she’s so enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I didn’t believe that after a few hours I would have made a wearable silver ring but the results are excellent. I was so inspired by the class that I have signed up to a longer jewellery making class.

Children (aged 8 and 11) enjoyed the experience, they said it was fun and interesting - only downside was a bit frustrating when things didn’t work (but that is part of the experience!).

Venue lovely and teacher very helpful and friendly.

I am very happy with my ring. The teacher was good and fun. The place pretty central

Sylvie Pope Feb 2023


My friends and I came for our Galentines date and we had such a lovely time! Although we weren’t melting the wax ourselves, we got to mix all the scents and had so much fun creating the perfect blends of top middle and bottom notes! We also chose pretty decorations and enjoyed the process of pouring the wax, adding the scent and decorations. The class was a slow pace, so perfect for complete beginners and very relaxed - not one of those ones where you feel rushed. The results were beautiful and we really enjoyed the overall experience ❤️

A lot of people in the class, not sure if it was over subscribed! There was a room share so there was a lot of banging noise from some craft makers. Drinks topped up as when we asked. Teacher was ok, helpers were more friendly. All in all a fun experience. Felt a bit rushed towards the end as we started 45 mins late. Could’ve been more organised with having everything ready eg aprons / paints before people arrived.

This was a really fun and interesting class! Our lovely tutor was very accommodating and each instruction was clear and with good humour. She helped bring a positive fun vibe to our hen party and kept us all engaged in the silver ring making. We all enjoyed it so much, four of our group are DT teachers in a secondary school were even inspired to introduce the ring making into their classroom in the future. It was a fun and welcoming atmosphere, we all had an amazing time.

Silver Ring Making Class review by Sean Shoge - London

Rosanna Nibbs Feb 2023


I just wanted to take a moment to share my thoughts on the pottery class I recently attended. Overall, I thought the class was great, with a great ambience, however, I found that they were often disorganized, they just gave us the material and the tools but didn't provide clear instructions, which made it difficult for me, because I didn't know what to do.

I want to be clear that I appreciate the effort that went into the class and the opportunity to learn about pottery, but I hope that some changes can be made in the future to improve the experience.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to my feedback

Valentina Matty Feb 2023


The class overall was ok and we had fun, but I wouldn't consider this as an class per se. I didn't feel like we were taught much, more instructed and left to ourselves. Also it would be great if the organisers could provide all the tools required, explain what they did and how to use them. Perhaps also get more tools (i.e. there was 1 brush for a table of 10 people). I would recommend to go with at least one other person so ypu don't feel alone. The teacher was not really patient and although we were sent the wrong address she kept saying that we got lost which was a little annoying and rude. Overall if you are not really looking for anything too serious I would recommend this "class" as a fun activity to have with friends.

Denna was so friendly and charismatic. I wish all of my teachers were like her. She made things so easy to understand and even with late comers it didn’t feel as if anyone was left behind or waiting without anything to do. You really get your moneys worth and I would love to do another course with Denna in the future. The rings we made tuned out great and you really get to customise them. You also learn a lot and really understand the process and I would feel 100% confident doing it unaided. Everyone in the class was chatting there was such a nice relaxed energy. There were some couples and some people on their own which blended nicely. The location was also easy to find.

The teacher was lovely and obviously knows what she is doing.
We had a bit of a problem at first to find her but in the end it did work really well.
I have learned that there’s silver with different thickness and different ways to be worked with.
We had a good understanding and fun when producing our own rigs. The teacher was always concerned about safety and giving clear instructions.
I highly recommend this class and teacher.
I was a great way of spending quality time with my daughter.
Thank you

Really, really disappointed - this shouldn’t be called a painting “class”. The teacher didn’t provide any guidance whatsoever, she was not engaged and spent most of her time on the phone. We haven’t been offered drinks, the venue was not ready when we arrived, we had to ask for equipment (like cup of water and brushes). The venue was terrible as well, and very cold.

The venue moved/ The bar was closed, so we’re told we would need to leave if we wanted any further drinks (as we were only given 1 glass of Prosecco) which was disappointing given everyone there just wanted to some Prosecco with friends!. It also seemed a little unorganised, given we were shown a photo of the painting on someone’s phone. It was fun but wasn’t blown away

The class was good, but unfortunately the fire alarm went off for nearly 40 minutes and it delayed the class and made the experience fairly unenjoyable. We had a dinner reservation for after that we ended up missing as it delayed the whole class and the whole evening. If there’s any way to get a refund, even a partial refund, it would be really appreciated for the inconvenience.

The workshop elves did a fantastic job at keeping my six year old daughter and one year old entertained. Alongside craft tables for making Christmas cards they both also enjoyed making reindeer food, face painting and festive games before meeting Santa. The fact they didn’t pack too many children (and their parents and grand parents) into the space made it an even more pleasant experience.

The grotto experience was very special. Far from being a generic meet and greet the elves asked for information about my children beforehand, so Santa was able to reference quite specific anecdotes which made it a personalised and believable experience for a rather precocious six year old!

I’d definitely book again next year.

Lisa Yuen Dec 2022


Came with friends for some festive cheer. Teacher was sweet enough, very softly spoken but didn’t have much time to supervise or answer questions as she was busy providing cuttings as they weren’t readily available on the table and we had to keep asking and waiting for more which cut into our time (we were a group of 5, there were 2 other groups so 10 in total - she was constantly cutting). There wasn’t much variety with decorations and foliage provided compared to some other reviews posted here, which is a shame. Am sure there was supposed to a beverage included when I booked too…

Sarah Mole Dec 2022


We really enjoyed the wreath making class - the teacher was very sweet and explained the method in simple steps. A nice range of materials is provided. The finished wreath is a bit smaller than I expected but still good value for the price of the class. The venue (upstairs at Spitalfields market) is a little soul-less and it would have been nice to be in a cozier space. Overall a really enjoyable class though - would book again.

Jayna Patel Dec 2022


I enjoyed the course and it was a bit cheaper than some other wreath-making classes I've seen. The location is also quite nice, they played Christmas songs as well which gave the class a festive atmosphere. There was not that much instruction given though and the resources were a bit limited, there was no glue provided so it was very difficult to attach things like the orange slices; we had to tie them on with string or wire which looked a bit naff. There was also only a few pairs of scissors and some of the decorations were in short supply. There were no baubles or cinnamon sticks to attach, as the picture shows. There were no refreshments provided either.

It was very much a ‘get on with it yourself’ class - not very demonstrative, had to keep asking for supplies constantly - the setup wasn’t great - uncomfortable benches and there was 7 of us working on a tiny table so wasn’t enough room to spread out. Overall wasn’t worth the money I paid - feel like I was teaching myself! Studio was freezing and not very festive/cosy.

Stephen the teacher/artist was excellent, he really made our group feel welcomed and made us laugh. We all enjoyed taking part in painting using spray paint cans. However, we were a bit disappointed because there was no Sipping involved. I thought we signed up for Sip and Paint but there were no refreshments of any kind made available to us.

Cecily was really lovely, gun and knoeledgable showing us lots of techniques when creating with clay. our class was mixed abilities and we all created something nice to take home.

Venue was nice - almost like a living room, perfect for winter evenings

Detmer Kremer Dec 2022


The workshop was fun, accessible and we were able to make great wreaths. The instructor was present, clear and helpful and we had a lot of fun. The venue, right in Spitalfields market helped create a wonderful atmosphere perfect for any holiday party. This was also the most affordable option available to us, so as a small charity team, this was a perfect treat for our hard working team.

Lesley Wolton Dec 2022


The teacher was welcoming and friendly. The venue was small but ok. Materials were ok but more options (baubles, berries, etc) would have been better. The class was fun.

Rebecca Wiltshire Dec 2022


Very sweet little craft session - making cards - combined with a visit with Santa. My kids loved it! The elves (staff) were, as ever, friendly, chatty and involved. Santa was very sweet, did well to remember the personal snippets of our kids' lives and he kept their attention the whole time we were with him. They loved him! We love Art Play and have been to many of their sessions. Keep up your wonderful work, guys! We'll keep coming x

Great class with relaxed atmosphere. The teacher was on hand to help if needed. Instructions were simple and clear - even for a beginner like me I find it very easy to follow! And I had a beautiful wreath to take home at the end of the class which was lovely.

The teacher was very patient and had a pleasing way of interacting. It was a cosy little studio and even some of us with no experience managed to make something worth taking home

Alexia Alvarez Dec 2022


I went to the address I had which is a shop, it was closed. Then I realised they change the address the day before, so I arrived late. They sent an email but it was in junk emails. The teachers were very sweet but a more informative and educational course would be more interesting. Also the terrarium itself was very basic.

Really enjoyed the wreath making. Madge and our other teacher were both friendly and welcoming. It was great fun!

Enjoyable activity to do as a team and nice to have something to take away!

Sirui Zeng Dec 2022


Denna was so lovely and showed really detailed instructions in every step. If you are nonnative English speaker, it’s fine. The lesson will be comfortable and easily catched.

Jessica Bond Nov 2022


Came away from the workshop with a lovely wreath, which is obviously key! Materials were good, although it seemed a little chaotic in terms of how these were given out (turned into a bit of a free for all). I did feel there was a lack of clear instruction on the day and we were largely left to get on with things ourselves. I think this class would be best suited to someone with some prior experience in wreath making, but as a total beginner I would have appreciated more advice and supervision.

Jean Heery Nov 2022


Brilliant class with such a fun and friendly teacher :) would definitely recommend for groups or individuals!

Nicole Zanatta Nov 2022


Out teacher was great! She explained what we were going to do and she she made us do some creative exercises with clay first - which was really fun! We worked with clay and different types of tools, and the whole experience was really well structured. Definitely recommend!

Harriett Stenton Nov 2022


This class was a real treat. The instructions were very clear and the teacher was keen to help and offer tips to all of us involved. The activity was simple to follow and resulted in a great product! I would definitely recommend and would be very keen to book again!

It was absolutely amazing class the teachers were so good, variety materials were provided to create excellent wreaths.

Christmas Wreath Making Workshop review by Sahin  - London

Aishah Martins-Soares Nov 2022


Overall enjoyable experience however the range of materials provided were not varied enough and we ran out of some items part way through making the wreaths.

Also not enough tables and chairs were put out for us and I was sometimes working with my wreath perched on the edge of a table.

Teacher was kind and friendly and lovey to be in Old Spitalfields market where we could hear live musicians and gospel singers singing Christmas songs below, getting us into the festive spirit

Aija our tutor was organized, helpful, creative, specialized all in a relaxed friendly atmosphere. Loved sharing xmas tradition stories with the people in the class. Came away not only with a stunning piece of creativity, which I'm usually not too good at, but also a lovely northern hemisphere Christmas feeling. Coming from New Zealand I wanted to get the wintery Christmas feel, this class has truly helped! Cheers to youand MERRY CHRISTMAS XX

It was my first time and I was genuine impressed! Location was perfect, we had enough time to experiment our skills and for sure I felt really free to express myself. After the session a big laugh and a sense of happiness stayed with me all the night.
And also I am very happy of my paint.
Guys that followed us in this experience were really friendly and available to reply to all our questions .

Had the best time at the workshop. Deanna was such an amazing instructor, very encouraging and talked everything through step by step- also such a lovely friendly person. Left the workshop with a shiny new ring and the temptation to try my hand at more jewellery making!

Nikita Rai Nov 2022


Deanna was a great teacher lots of fun in our group - we also took away two wonderful rings

The whole process was wonderful. Everything was provided and a teacher was incredibly friendly and supportive. There was only one inconvenience: uncomfortable venue.
Anyway, it was a great experience and we've got new stuff for our homes

Julia Marquis Nov 2022


A fun activity and the results were cute. The set up for seating weren’t ideal and it made it awkward to access the materials we needed for the class and, at times, to hear the instructor.

It was the happiest memory in honeymoon trip ! Thank you for giving a great time

Candle Making class review by Jeong Hae-Ji - London

Debbie Higham Nov 2022


Denna was an excellent teacher and has a great personality, she clearly loves what she does. Although expecting three students and ending up with nine this didn't bother her at all and she had time and materials for all of us. She explained every stage of the ring making process clearly and with reasons/science as to why things were done as they were. She was helpful and encouraging. We all ended up with beautiful, unique silver rings. I think mine is fabulous and am likely to do the class again with some friends.

Ese Nuesiri Nov 2022


The class was easy to follow and the instructor was great. I also liked the scents provided

There was a slight hiccup at the beginning as we had the wrong address(!), but on arrival we had a great time with lovely teachers who were clearly experts with pumpkins! The kids loved it so much.

Valeriya Batra-Kirsey Oct 2022


Brilliant workshop - perfect balance between useful tips and assistance from the instructors and free creativity! Wonderful team supervising the workshop and great spacious location in the Old Spitalfields Market. We will definitely come back again!

Natalia Georgiou Oct 2022


I expected more from this class for some reason! We arrived and were just given a pumpkin and thats it. All tools laid out on table but no intro, no creative guidance, tips, tricks, or much interaction from any of the leaders. I guess i’m surprised the £17 was just to be given a pumpkin and thats it! I think to improve - a free glass of bubbly upon entry or some proper cool pumpkin carving tricks to learn something would have been a nice touch.

Edward Xu Oct 2022


Very friendly teacher and a lovely experience to do it with friends and family. Recommend!

The teacher was great! really knowledgeable and attentive. Would definitely recommend everyone give it a go. The venue is a little small and tables and chairs could do with an upgrade, our chair broke half way in the class but that didn't change the mood. Thank you and we will return.

A great way to spend an evening, with a passionate teacher explaining all and you get a bespoke silver ring at the end of it.

Spencer Spottiswoode Sep 2022


It was a great evening learning about Pyrography. Our teachers were very helpful and fun and showed us how to best use the tools to achieve different designs. We loved how we were able to make things we actually had a use for once we brought it home. Would definitely recommend

A really great atmosphere. A fun class to explore candle making for the beginner. Teacher was very likable and helpful. Give it a go! A fab candle to take home that you designed. ❤️

Oisin Aug 2022


The teacher was great, loved her energy and the time she took to speak to everyone. Very inclusive and a relaxing atmosphere.

I do feel it had maybe two couples too much making it feel a little over crowded.

This a small issue and not one that should put ppl off going!

Adam Welch Aug 2022


The ring-making class was excellent. Our teacher managed the session very well and was encouraging and helpful throughout, even though there were quite a few if us in the class. Would definitely recommend.

Giorgia Varriale Aug 2022


Denna was really great, so talented and patient with everything. Can't wait to book again

Kate Brooks Aug 2022


The teacher was great. Super friendly and helpful. The only issue, there was too many people in the class. I don’t think this was caused by the teacher but rather by the booking process.

Leigh Johnson Aug 2022


Teacher was very nice and clear with instructions. Great idea for date night or making a friendship ring. Would definitely recommend!

Yogesh Bhatia Aug 2022


The teacher was phenomenal! We had an amazing time and came out with two great pieces. Highly recommend for a date night!

Fantastic class! Walked in knowing nothing and came out with a lush ring I made. It was so much fun and the teacher was great, she created an amazing atmosphere and got us all talking and working quickly. I would love to do more workshops like this, it was a great afternoon of fun and love that I have a beautiful shiny keepsake.
