Please join us for the Creative Walks, which are running for a limited time only throughout March, and are led by experienced artist Simon Jardine. The Hungerford walk includes short stops to paint, draw or photograph areas of interest. Walks end with a creative class inspired by the walk, along with tea and coffee.
They are open to everyone - experience of photography, painting and drawing is not necessary. Free art equipment is provided. Walks are informal, relaxed and friendly. These walks are suitable for adults, but not families, or children.
Please note: time spent physically walking is approximately 30-45 minutes, however the session itself lasts from 10-1pm to allow time spent for creative activities along the route, and back at the library. You are welcome to leave early.
There are limited spaces available on this walk and booking is required. Please email Gemma.Taylor@westberks.gov.uk to book a space.
The walks are designed to be inclusive for all. This walk may include some uneven ground and inclines, however these can be avoided if required. Footwear such as sturdy boots are recommended due to the rural location of the walk, and it is advised that you bring a waterproof jacket
