Here’s why painting is good for the soul….
Painting can slow down the mind and body, helping to transport you to a place of peace and flow. With every drop of pigment and sweep of water,
discover the quiet joy of presence and creativity.
No experience needed, just come as you are!
Please bring an apron.

We recommend parking in the Waitrose carpark as it is free on Sundays.
It’s under a 5 minute walk to Farnham Museum from the carpark.
(Carpark address: Hart carpark, Long Garden Way, GU9 7HA). From here, on foot, head to Farnham Museum which is located on West Street. Go to the left side of the building (as you look at it). There is a white wooden door (side entrance) which opens up to the garden museum.
