Dementia-friendly Creative Café

Fourth Wednesday of every month*, 1.30- 3.30pm.

Discover new ways to enjoy Wakefield’s art collection, get creative in relaxed, artist-led sessions or simply join us for a chat and
cup of tea.

April’s Creative Café celebrates the abundance of spring tulips in the garden. During this session we will take a short walk out into the garden to see the tulips, then return to the studio to draw and paint, make paper flowers and try out felt making.

These monthly workshops invite people living with dementia, their carers, friends and family to talk, make and imagine with us inspired by our exhibitions and art collection.
