I have worked as an Artist Educator for over 30 years and have been employed by over 125 educational establishments. All my workshops are designed with your individual group in mind. Everything is tailored to meet their educational needs, as well as catering for those with additional support needs.
I can provide you with a taster half day session with one class or with those who have been seen to be Gifted and Talented in the arts, or a full school workshop, where each pupil and member of staff can contribute to a unique piece of art for your school. I can also help with after school provision or holiday clubs.

Polymer Clay Workshops...Children
Workshops at Harland Works in Sheffield - Summer 2024
Join us for a fun-filled Polymer Clay workshop with expert Gill from Clay creations! Your children will be amazed at what they can achieve with this versatile brightly coloured modelling material. They will be able to create treasures to take home at the end of the session.
The experienced artist, Gill Cosford will guide you through the process of moulding, shaping, and adding intricate details to your clay creations. You will then take your creations home to bake in your home oven. Full instructions will be given.
You will be in safe hands with Gill who says:
“I have been creating beautiful and intricate designs with polymer clay for almost four decades now. I have had the pleasure of sharing my passion for this modelling clay with a diverse range of individuals and groups over the years. From school children to community organizations, and from beginners to experienced artists, I have conducted workshops that cater to everyone’s needs and interests. My goal is to inspire creativity and foster a love for this versatile material in all my students"
Feedback from some of Gill’s workshops: Neil Hoskins age 11 “ I really enjoyed it, it was brill! I really enjoyed making my swimming picture. I hope you can come again!” and Jenna age 11 “It was really good. I thought it would be a lot harder. I would like to do it again. Thank you so much.”
Our sessions are designed to be adult friendly too - as your little ones are kept busy with creative activities, we hope you have time to drink a coffee or tea in relative peace, should you wish to! Although we do find that some adults tend to get just as engaged as the children in our activities!
Children need to be accompanied by an adult. £12 per person - adults welcome to book a place and have a go too!
