Let's take a moment to reflect on our recent event in Leamington Spa. It was a beautiful gathering that created unforgettable memories. These moments we shared—filled with laughter, connection, and joy—will stay with us forever. Let’s carry that positivity forward, using it as inspiration in our future endeavors. Together, we can create even more remarkable experiences! Keep that spirit alive—great things are on the horizon!

Capoeira, a dynamic blend of martial art, dance, and music, has roots in Afro-Brazilian culture. Its fluid, powerful movements and rhythmic beats captivate both participants and spectators. Awareness of capoeira is growing thanks to dedicated teachers, enthusiasts, and its inclusion in cultural festivals. If you’re intrigued by this unique art form, consider finding a local class. You’ll not only get a great workout but also immerse yourself in rich traditions and community spirit. Try a class today and experience the beauty of capoeira firsthand!

✨Hello everyone! My name is Ludmila Centurión and I am thrilled to announce I will continue to teach art workshops at the Phoenix for this next part of the year.

🗓️ Starting this *Wednesday 13/09 until Wednesday 11/10* (it’s a 5 week course every Wednesday) from 7 pm until 9.30 pm (great for an after work activity) I will be teaching the workshop 🎨 “Art & ideas”🖌️this one will be directed towards the influence of modern art movements from the XX century onwards, specifically in the work of Latin American artists. We will also have an opportunity to create some sketchbooks where we will be applying some techniques inspired in the work of these artists, so there’s a theoretical but and also a fun, practical side to it!

Whether you have or not an experience in art history or art techniques, you’re welcomed to come. Please invite whomever you’d like! Spanish and Latin American community, and everyone of course, welcomed!

From our Latina friend Ludmila!

Hello! I'm Ludmila Centurion, I'm from Paraguay 🇵🇾 I've been living in Exeter for two and a half years, I came to study a master's degree at the University of Exeter and stayed to explore the British education system and work in my area, artistic education.

I am pleased to announce that every Wednesday in May and June (plus the early two of July), I begin two art workshops for all people, with or without experience in art. Would love if Hispanic Speakers could attend! We will explore several techniques in both workshops and a little history of Latin American art 🇵🇾 🇦🇷 🇧🇷 🎨 del ✨

Schedule, cost, program and more information in the link.

Please help me by sharing and spreading the word? 🙏🏽 Thank you!
