Painting Class in an East London Studio Reviews

Read ClassBento UK Reviews

This is a fun activity in Stepney, London

When you need some creativity & nature to counteract the hustle and bustle of London, join this art class guided by an experienced and friendly teacher, Georgie (or Monica if you're coming between November 2025 and January 2026 as Georgie will be in India soaking up inspiration for her next solo show!)

Classes take place at Stepney City Farm. This little slice of green paradise is the perfect place to open yourself up to new skills and enjoy a creative and relaxing break.

When you arrive at the space, Georgie (or Monica) will greet you and offer you tea/coffee. She'll then take you on a stroll through secret areas of the farm, with stopping points where you'll be guided through short creative warm-up exercises.

Back in the studio, your host will demonstrate some techniques and textures she uses in her work, from making textures out of farmyard mud, to splashing paint, Pollock-style!

You'll learn how to construct your very own masterpiece by building texture, colour mixing, mark-making, and most importantly, letting go. Your host will help you detach from your inner perfectionist, enjoy the process and find flow. There are no rules, no right or wrong - this class is a place to practise getting comfortable with the unknown, and get messy! (Don't worry - kimonos and gloves provided)

If you've ever wanted to start painting but lacked the materials or motivation to get going, this art workshop is ideal. Georgie or Monica will give you as much or as little guidance as you need and want. It's also perfect for all occasions, from a birthday party, a hen's do or just a fun day out in London.

The class at the Stepney farm includes a short break where you can buy lunch from our onsite cafe, The Allotment Kitchen, or the farmers market, right by the studio, so you can enjoy local produce meals made with care.

Other info:

The class is for ages 16+ but if you're booking as part of a private group of 6-8 then of children aged 5+ are welcome.

Please note: Stepney City Farm is NOT Hackney City Farm!

Fabulous experience! Georgie is not only an amazing artist, but also completely relatable. She has an amazing way to help you free your inhibitions and embrace the freedom needed to get the most out of yourself and her workshop. A wonderful day, that both me & my husband enjoyed, learnt so much and even as amateurs, has given us the confidence to be more open to allowing our feelings to drive the creative process, rather than our heads. Thank you Georgie. X
