Scissors Paper Cloth

Orleans House Gallery Arts Group for Adults

Scissors Paper Cloth is the new arts group for adults, working with artist facilitators to explore a wealth of diverse materials and techniques. The group takes place on Thursday evenings from 6.45 - 9pm. Each block of sessions explores a different medium in creative, experimental ways, encouraging you to combine it with your own skills and knowledge or follow the suggestions of the facilitator. Take home something useful, beautiful or joyfully eccentric at the end of each block!
