Arty Times
“Maya loved her time with you and is desperate to come back for the full week!”

Since starting Arty Times in 2010 we have gone from strength to strength and have really enjoyed teaching so many children! We are CRB checked, fully insured and have First Aid training.
At our art workshops we give every young artist bags of encouragement to express their ideas, experiment with different materials and uncover what inspires them. There are no wrong answers only discovery and the confidence this gives them is wonderful to see!
“Being a mum to two children and having an artistic background (studied Art Foundation and two Design degrees, worked in Theatre Design, Scenic Art, Prop Making and Art Direction) I wanted to give children the chance to experience and enjoy the revelation that making art gave and still gives me! I absolutely love teaching and encouraging all those young artists to have a go is my aim.”
Helen Rutherford, Founder and Workshop Leader
“I am lucky to work in an area I really enjoy! I am passionate about art and really enjoy encouraging the children to develop their own creative styles. My Teaching Assistant experience and qualification (NCFE Supporting Teaching and Learning in Schools Certificate) provides me with a working knowledge to help inspire and teach different art techniques, whilst providing a fun and safe environment.”
