Discover the joy of turning your treasured keepsakes into a beautiful bespoke Memory Box artwork in my one-day Memory Box workshop in Hastings, East Sussex. Whether your objects are joyful, nostalgic, or deeply personal, this workshop is a chance to tell their story and celebrate the significance they hold in your life.
Perfect for beginners or anyone looking to explore their creativity, this hands-on workshop teaches you how to arrange, secure, and finish your objects using professional assemblage art techniques. You will create a Memory Box you’ll cherish and proudly display or gift to a special someone.
In a small-group setting for an intimate, personalised experience (maximum 4 participants), you’ll receive guidance from a professional artist, learning how to balance colour, texture, and storytelling to create the best possible composition. Held in my sunny garden studio on the East Sussex coast, the workshop includes all materials, a pre-prepared 28 × 28 cm backing board, homemade lunch, and refreshments throughout the day, providing a relaxed and inspiring environment to bring your memories to life.
By the end of the day, you will leave with a finished Memory Box ready for framing and the confidence to continue exploring assemblage art with your own collection of keepsakes.
“I absolutely loved everything about Pippa’s Memory Box workshop: from the inspiring and beautiful location to her passion of memory boxes and artistic view. It was lovely to spend a day with like-minded creative people and I welcomed Pippa’s guidance and help on my memory box. She is super friendly, very helpful, informative and explained everything very well. It was my first memory box, but I’m sure it wasn’t the last!” – Gizella
