After a quick tour of the studio, you’ll pick up new painting techniques and explore a whole new side of yourself as you create a marvellous masterpiece to take home.

One of London's best-kept secrets, Token Studio is a dream destination for potential potters or fans of handcrafted ceramics. Descend into an inspiring underground space, and you'll unearth all the equipment and materials you need to enjoy a therapeutic session of pottery making.
Let the creative vibes flow through you as you sink your hands into your new favourite hobby and transfer your imagination to solid form. It’s a surefire way to create a striking ceramic piece on the wheel.

If you’re keen to explore exotic cuisine or master a new dish, you don't need to travel halfway across the world — you can find it all in Wandsworth at The Avenue Cookery School!
Just a stone's throw from The River Thames and the stunning Wandsworth Park, The Avenue is one of London's top family-run cooking schools, with a group of passionate foodies and experienced chefs ready to welcome you to a warm, energetic atmosphere.
Join your teachers and get busy perfecting your Indian cooking skills or taking your Spanish tapas to the next level as you feel the community spirit flow through you. Under the studio's beautiful bunting and fairy lights, you'll soon find new cooking skills illuminated.
If you could use a little more nature in your life
Discover a flourishing side to London that you’ve never seen before and take an inspiring walk through the myriad of publicly accessible green spaces (18% of London is made up of them!). We recommend a stroll through London Fields and Shoreditch Park before heading to Stems Rebellion's floral haven to create your own seasonal flower arrangement.
Led by a fantastic florist, you'll start with fresh, seasonal blooms and pick up plenty of different techniques as you combine your flowers into a stunning hand-tied arrangement to decorate your home. It’s a failsafe way to recharge your batteries.
If you want something completely different
If you're looking to shake up your summer and try something new, we've got just the thing for you — glass fusing!
Hosted in a scenic spot close to London's Victoria Park, a glass fusing workshop will help you ignite your creative passion as you transform coloured glass into a selection of stunning trinket dishes with the help of E3 Glass Studio.
You might never have heard of glass fusing, but with step-by-step support from your artisan guide, you'll soon be combining colours and designs into a one-of-a-kind piece as you take in the inspiring sights of the city.
