June Features

St Ives September Festival
Join us from 13-27 September for two weeks of live music and the arts at this year’s St Ives September Festival.
We will be hosting workshops throughout the two weeks, every morning and afternoon, and this year, we’re welcoming two new artists to our September Festival programme, Amy Albright and Laura Menzies.
Figure on a Rock – Inspired by Laura Knight
On 25 June, we will be broadcasting live from our studios in St Ives with artist Gary Long for the first part of our webinar, Figure on a Rock – inspired by Dame Laura Knight.
We will transport you to the beach in St Ives, to draw and paint from pre-recorded footage of our model posing on the rocks.

Tips & Insights
We know it can be a daunting feeling picking up a paintbrush for the first time, or exploring a brand-new medium.
Our online ‘Getting Started’ oil painting and watercolour painting courses are the perfect place to begin, giving you a comprehensive grounding into both watercolours and oils.
The courses offer a step-by-step approach and are self-paced so you can take all the time you need!

This Month’s Read
Discover The Salt Path, a poignant adaptation of Raynor Winn’s bestselling memoir. The film chronicles the transformative 630-mile trek along the South West Coast Path undertaken by Raynor and her husband, Moth, after losing their home and grappling with a terminal illness diagnosis.
