Perfect for hen dos, birthday parties or any other special occasion.
Learn to paint gorgeous seasonal florals in this beginner-friendly watercolour with a paintbrush in one hand and a glass of gorgeous prosecco in the other.
Working from a freshly cut bouquet of flowers, sourced by the amazing Blooming Flair Florist, you will develop your watercolour painting skills with the help of a professional artist instructor. You'll be taught impressive yet easy-to-learn watercolour techniques; washes, wet on wet, colour layering, adding pen detail &amp; more.
We place emphasis on the mindfulness aspect of painting, rather than the output. We hope that you will leave this mindful painting experience feeling a little calmer and a little lighter, with your own unique botanical illustration on lovely watercolour paper.

Fresh Florals in Watercolours: Painting Class

Berwick-upon-Tweed

Stoneware Pottery Monster Workshop in Northumberland
This monstrous pottery session, returning for a third year, designed for the young and un-young, will see you create a plant pot using the slab-building technique in just an hour and half! Although simple in principle, it will involve giving your monster character and personality, so plenty of imagination will be needed in creating your Frankenstein Pot! The basic method will be outlined at the start, and then it's up to you to create your pot! Once finished, your monster will stay at the studio to be fired, glazed and then re-fired. Then it's up to you to plant and nurture your monster pot - and grow something that matches the personality that has emerged - or use it for pens, brushes, whatever...
As these monsters are built I hope that every one will have a clear personailty and that they will all be named - like my Trevor and Guy that started this whole journey!
There are only eight places per session - this allows enough access to support for everyone to be successful! As this is a creative class designed to be accessible to all including younger potters, we must insist that a parent or guardian attends with any participant aged 16 or under. The numbers are limited to avoid over-crowding in the workshop. Each ticket books a maker's-seat at the pottery table. If you are going to have to attend as a (free) specator, please make a note of this at the time of booking. 
If you book a place for a young person and feel they will need help in creating their monster, please come along and help them (as a non-paying spectator). Even with only eight people booked in a session, it can be difficult to support everyone in the way they need. Again, please note this at the time of booking. 
The ticket price covers all tuition, tools, firings and glaze for one monster pot. Please note that these pots will be glazed in just one colour - dip-glazed as you request. 
A word of warning - the kiln Gods can be fickle, and despite doing everything possible, some pieces will fail, crack or blow up (!) in the kiln. There are no guarantees in pottery, not even for seasoned potters. A second word of warning - working with pottery can be hugely addictive. You have been warned!
The New Ford Studio is housed on the ground floor of the old Reading Rooms - you will find it just up the road from Lady Waterford Hall. Nearby are many attractions and places to walk, shop and eat; how about a near by Narrow-guage Railway (that runs to Etal Castle and back), a working flour mill, a Village Shop & Tearoom, a heavy horse centre, a micro-brewery, or a Riverside cafe? 
Please note - access to the studio is only via a set of external stone steps, and there is a single toilet available on site. The booking cost (£17.50) secures a spot at the maker's table; if you need to stay to support a younger participant, please make sure you have noted this when you book your ticket!
If you need your work posting out to you or someone else, please ensure you book an additional postage and packing ticket!
And finally - There is ample free parking at Ford, at Heatherslaw and at Etal. Ravn Clay sits at the heart of the Estate, which also offers camping, glamping, B&Bs and guests houses. And there’s plenty more to do and see while you are here - 
Heatherslaw Light Railway
Etal Castle (English Heritage)
Heatherslaw Mill
Hay Farm Heavy Horse Centre
Lady Waterford Hall
Flodden Battlefield
Loads of little eateries, pubs and shops etc
Spectacular scenery, walking and countryside

On the fiction side, she is looking for historical fiction that is well researched, immerses readers in the era, and looks at overlooked characters from the past, or perhaps gives a new spin on someone we think we know. On the literary and upmarket side, she is looking for novels infused with emotions that capture the human experience and make readers think. If your literary novel is something at A24 productions might turn into a movie, this is Liza&rsquo;s taste.When it comes to fantasy, she loves urban and grounded fantasy (no sci-fi please!), and is always happy to look at anything with a vampire, werewolf, witches, warlocks, fairies, and perhaps a sinister selkie or two. She is also very much looking for romantasy and is the best person at the agency to submit that too. For thrillers, send her anything set in an exotic location, high-concept, or things with a speculative twist. She loves when characters are put in situations she would never want to be in, and then they have to get out of it. Her recent favourite fiction includes:&nbsp;Notes on an Execution, Lady Macbethad, Hamnet, A Discovery of Witches, House of Earth and Blood, The Starless Sea, Piranesi, Our Wives Under the Sea, The Pisces, Such A Fun Age.When it comes to non fiction, she is looking for books that teach her something new or reframe a topic from an alternative point of view. This can include cookery, pop science, and social history. Liza&rsquo;s recent favourite non-fiction include:&nbsp;The Five, A History of Art Without Men, Messalina, The Authority Gap, Finding The Mother Tree, Cook This Book, Dessert Person.Liza would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 - 2 page synopsis and the first 5000 words of your manuscript in a single word document.&nbsp;<p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; color: var(--text); font-family: sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;" fr-original-style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; color: var(--text); font-family: sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">(In addition to the paid sessions, Liza is kindly offering one free session for low income/underrepresented writers.

LOOKING FOR: ADULT FICTION, NON-FICTION
Rachel Neely began her publishing career in 2016 at HarperCollins, before moving to Hachette where she worked as an editor for the next six years, specialising in crime and thrillers along with book club novels and contemporary fiction, most recently as a Commissioning Editor at Orion. 
Rachel joined Mushens Entertainment at the start of 2022 as an Associate Agent, assisting Juliet Mushens with her client list, including multiple Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling authors. Simultaneously she began signing her own clients. In August 2023 she was promoted to Literary Agent and is actively growing her list, looking for book-club fiction, dark academia, rom-coms, tragic love stories, crime and thrillers. Please note she is not the right agent for sci-fi, espionage novels, YA or children’s books. 
She signs both commercial and literary authors, and is always looking for a distinctive voice matched with a compelling plot. She also is especially drawn to darker stories that centre characters with tragic fates, dark pasts or buried trauma. She is also keen to find authors from underrepresented groups who can bring a fresh perspective to well-worn story arcs, or capture experiences shared by many but, as of yet, underexplored in fiction. 
She would love to see a commercial locked-room thriller in the vein of The Midnight Feast, The White Lotus or with shades of Succession; novels about cults such as The Girls; a voice-led serial-killer thriller reminiscent of How to Kill Your Family; compelling dark academia to rival The Secret History; a high-concept but tragic love story that will make her ugly cry in the vein of The Time Traveller’s Wife or One Day; and anything that has an outsider trying to break into the world of the privileged and morally bankrupt.
Besides those above, her favourite novels include The List, The Talented Mr Ripley, The Lovely Bones, Other People’s Clothes, The It Girl, The Girl Before, Notes on an Execution, My Dark Vanessa and My Sister the Serial Killer.
Rachel would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 - 2 page synopsis and the first 5000 words of your manuscript in a single word document. 
(In addition to the paid sessions, Rachel is kindly offering one free session for low income/underrepresented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print). 
By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with I Am In Print prior to the event. You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting.
The submission deadline is: Monday 7 October 2024
