Who is this Programme for?

 

The Art Club for Mums with Newborns is an emotional support programme. In this group, mothers are invited to bring their children and relax through creative approaches to promote, protect and enhance mental health and well-being.

​

In each session we will work on different projects using a variety of art materiales like clay, textiles, creative journalling and more. Each mum will make a range of sensory objects for her baby and also some fun and dynamic creative projects for herself!

​

The sessions are suitable for women with babies. You can attend after your baby's birth anytime afterwards (as soon as you are ready to leave the house). Babes in arms are very welcome to come along - of course. As are other children - but please bring toys, etc. to keep them happy (the activities are not themselves for children).

​

What to expect

A weekly support group where mothers can connect and share their experiences without judgement and with absolute freedom and respect. It is an open space to explore experiences, feelings, doubts, fears or joys about motherhood and your new babies - all while making art together!

​

You will be able to choose and experiment with a variety of art materials such as ceramics, textiles, painting and creative collage or journaling. We will make a range of modern and useful objects for both you and your baby – objects like sensory bottles, teething necklaces, ceramic mugs and prints for your home. We will connect our motherhoods and leave room for creativity. No art experience is necessary.

 

All materials are provided and the sessions are informal and projects are fluid, from week to week.
