I have listed workshops that I run in schools, if you are interested in booking a workshop for your school or group then please e-mail me with the workshop you are interested in and the dates you would prefer and I will send further details and costs. If you are interested in me running a workshop for you but you can't see it listed, ask me I might be able to design something tailor-made for you.

"As a school art co-ordinator I have worked with Lucy Sugden on many occasions. The art work she produced with the children was of a very high standard and the experience was always thoroughly enjoyed."
Jenny Crowe (Woolgrove School Letchworth)
"I worked with Lucy as her Teaching Assistant for a year, working with year 3 - year 6 (age 7 - 11) children. Her tuition covered a broad range of topics including Textiles, Drawing,Sculpting and Painting, to name but a few, offering an excellent opportunity and learning for those children. The children responded well and thoroughly enjoyed the experience."
Eithne Hawthorne (Teaching Assistant at Huntingdon Junior School)
Lucy has worked with our school on many Art Projects over the last 5 years and has inspired us to try different approaches to Art activities.She has taught both children and staff a range of skills, which have been enjoyed by all, and her ability to encourage everybody to have a go is brilliant!
