Welllbeing Wednesday @ Art in the Park

Join Arts on Prescription (a local, not-for-profit community interest company) every Wednesday from 10 am to 3 pm at the Art in the Park hub in Alexandra Park.

This weekly community session is designed specifically for adults seeking to combat isolation, manage anxiety, or rediscover self-care, the day balances structured activities with open social time. Attendees can participate in therapeutic arts, mindful movement, and peer group discussions led by professional wellness practitioners.

The main creative activities running 10 am to 12:30 pm and include drawing, painting, clay work, gentle yoga, creative writing and group singing and you’re free to move between them, depending on how you feel that day.

A wellbeing practitioner is on site if you’d rather just chat and it’s pay-as-you-can, with a suggested donation of £4 to £5, which gets you materials plus tea, pastries and soup. Anyone 16 and over is welcome, and no experience in any of the activities is needed.

Turning up on the day is fine, though registering in advance means there’s definitely a space ready for you.
