london dollshouse festivals

Kensington Dollshouse Festival (formerly the London Dollshouse Festival) was established in 1985 by Caroline Hamilton & Sue Atkinson, both dolls house enthusiasts, who wanted to create an event that would bring together the top dolls house makers & miniature artists from around the world with dolls house collectors & aficionados. Over the last 35 years the Festival has become the top international show for quality dolls’ houses, baby houses, miniatures & models. Faithful customers travel to London from Asia, USA, Africa, Australia and Europe, just to visit the Festival every year, there are 170+ craftsmen exhibiting, with approximately ¼ of the total exhibitors travelling from outside the UK and most of whom make the items they sell themselves. 95% of all the items for sale are completely hand made. In 2005, Charlotte Stokoe took over the organisation of the Festival, and introduced other events alongside the main show, including workshops (in association with IGMA – The International Guild of Miniature Artisans), tours to places of interest, free children’s activities & the PIMA (Perfection in Miniature Awards). A one day Christmas Festival was added to the calendar in 2008, which quickly became as popular & successful as its Summer counterpart.

hackney fine arts

Hackney Fine Arts mission Our mission is to teach people of all ages and backgrounds how to make fantastic art from learning the essential artistic skills of drawing and painting from observation regardless of their experience or abilities. Anyone can learn them from any age, regardless of their experience, as creating great pictures requires learning and developing techniques.

We harness their skill development, encourage and support each student on their own artistic journeys to fulfil their unique artistic potential. The results will leave you amazed of what can be achieved. We deliver term time and holiday classes for children and teenagers and morning, evening and weekend courses for adults. We use the traditional methods of copying from masters and photographs as our learning resources.

masterpeace london

At MasterPeace, we practice mindfulness through painting. It’s not about how ‘good’ you are. It’s about enjoying a moment of creative calm in an always-on world. So build a little creativity into your routine and see what happens when you paint yourself an even better picture - Zena El Farra, founder.  MasterPeace launched in September 2019 as London’s first dedicated mindful painting experience, with an initial focus on in-studio classes, hosted in their Belgravia studio.  Founded by Zena El Farra and run by a team of 20 artists, MasterPeace was inspired by new research revealing that creativity tangibly boosts the mood, and can be an effective tool in managing anxiety and even depression.  In the wake of Covid-19, the business had to quickly adapt to the changing circumstances. It was from this that the At Home Art Kits were born, enabling the young business to survive and thrive.
