DRD Group Tuition and workshops is an experience in community art-making involving intensive learning over a short period of time. Each workshop or group tuition can be tailored to suit the age and creative desires of the participants and are suitable for children from 7 up to adults. These workshops can range from as little as a 1 hour to a day-long intensive a block of several lessons over a period of weeks and beyond.
Fun safe environment
DRD Group Tuition offers ‘safety in numbers’ for those that just want to have a go. Art is often intimidating for people. We understand this and make the creative process as reassuring as possible with lots of support and clear learning scaffolding. The core idea behind the DRD Group Tuition is about ‘everyone’ being able to excel at the level they want to aspire to in a supportive social setting.
