Arts Lab

The Arts Lab is an open-access art studio for creative activity. It’s an ideal space for individuals and groups to get together to embark on a creative project – whether this be the building of simple props and sculpture, painting projects, theatre set design, craft or drawing. Think of your old art classroom but there’s nobody telling you what to do. It’s equipped with large movable tables, artist easels and an array of essential art materials.
