First time ever attending a class under the Art Play company. Had a go with the Terrarium class and the instructor Kai was super friendly and informative while also being extremely patient especially with my slow terrarium building skills. The space felt safe and enjoyable to learn an art form that I am a novice at. Highly recommend taking your partner or family to these classes. Thank you for the experience!!!!

We bought this workshop for a friend's birthday and had a lovely time. The teacher was great at explaining what to do, as well as the reasoning behind adding different elements to the terrarium. We all left the class with beautiful terrariums and the knowledge of how to create other ones ourselves in the future. Would definitely recommend!

We absolutely loved this workshop! Kai was so knowledgeable and we really switched off from the busy world around us and came away with a new little terrarium world to look after. Perfect for a team/friends/family who want to do something mindful but learn along the way :)
