SUMMARY:The Power of the Particular: Brief Lives Creative Writing Workshops
DESCRIPTION:Join the Chippenham Museum Creative Writing Group for a series of linked workshops celebrating the 400th anniversary of the birth of local antiquarian and famous biographer\, John Aubrey. The workshops will be led by Lesley Taylor\, an experienced facilitator\, and will draw inspiration from Aubrey’s work and the museum’s summer exhibition. \nBorn in Kington St Michael in 1626\, Aubrey was a biographer\, archaeologist\, scientist\, naturalist\, and oral historian. He valued the minutiae of everyday life\, and his writing is rich with specific (and often witty) details that bring the past to life. \nDrawing on his most well-known work\, Brief Lives – written portraits of key figures of his day – the workshops will explore how to write with greater detail. Sessions will provide an opportunity to develop the skill of telling your own stories with clarity\, experimenting with a range of forms including flash fiction\, memoir\, poetry\, and creative non-fiction. \nSuitable for beginners and experienced writers alike\, this series of monthly workshops will culminate in An Evening with Aubrey at the museum\, where participants’ work will be shared and celebrated. The date for this celebratory event is to be confirmed. \nEach session costs £5 per person. Spaces are limited\, so booking is essential. Please contact the museum to reserve your place. \n \nFind out more about the Chippenham – Our History project on this website here.

SUMMARY:Taste of Summer: Painting Fruits in Watercolour
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the colours and flavours of summer with this relaxed and joyful watercolour workshop. You’ll explore the vibrant shapes\, textures\, and hues of seasonal fruits\, learning how to bring them to life on paper in a fresh\, expressive way. \nWe’ll cover approachable watercolour techniques for painting juicy berries\, citrus\, stone fruits\, and more\, with guidance on colour mixing\, light\, and shadow to help your paintings feel bright and full of energy. There’ll be pieces of fruit and reference images on the table for inspiration\, and you can choose to paint a single piece of fruit\, a small group\, or try painting a few different fruits – the choice is yours! \nThis session is beginner-friendly and low-pressure\, with an emphasis on enjoyment and experimentation rather than technical perfection. I’ll be on hand to offer as much or as little guidance as you’d like\, supporting you as you explore painting something new in your own style. \nYou’ll take home your painting along with an Introduction to Watercolour booklet to inspire you to continue with watercolour at home. \nWe’ll have exclusive use of The Waverley’s spacious main upstairs room\, and a complimentary drink of your choice is included in your ticket. \nAll materials are provided (or feel free to bring your own favourites)\, and no prior drawing experience is needed – just curiosity\, a love of colour\, and a willingness to have fun with paint!
