Well-being Day with Q&A
Join us on Wednesday 21st November for a day of well-being at Turner House Gallery, Penarth.
From 12pm we will have a range of activities on offer so drop in any time that suits you:
Ani Saunders, musician and artist featured in our Ffotoview exhibition earlier this year, will be hosting a bilingual collage workshop, inspired by our current exhibition Katrien De Blauwer: Reprise.
Local business Glass By Design will be hosting some glass-making activities throughout the day
Penarth’s local health and nutrition store Pro Health & Nutrition will be sharing some of their well-being remedies
Why not pop in for a soothing Indian Head Massage or Hand Massage? Staff from Beauty Box will be on hand between 2-6pm
Create your own healing poetry with guidance from Healing Poems for Positive Love by Fran Smith.
The day will finish with a panel discussion from 6pm with creative industry and health and well-being professionals. Come along and learn more about the relationship between well-being and the arts, plus there’ll be an opportunity for a Q&A. The day’s events are free, however we ask that you book a ticket for the panel discussion so we know how many to expect.
