Learning with llamas

Since our initial collaboration with Frome Arts Festival, way back in the summer of 2011, we have enjoyed running a series of arts and crafts workshops during the summer months, using our llamas as the focal point!

Learning is way more fun when you're

learning with llamas!

But don't panic!  You don't have to love llamas to attend one of our workshops (although we can't guarantee that you won't be smitten with them by the end of the day!)  If you don't want to decoupage a llama, for example - it's not a problem!  Other animal forms are available, or you are even able to bring along your own item to decoupage.  The only criteria is to have fun.

All craft sessions take place in our newly refurbished art space and the fees cover your tuition, all materials (unless otherwise stated) and refreshments - which will be freely available.   After the session has ended, you will have the chance, if you wish, to come and meet the llamas.

Llama yoga, meditation and mindfulness, photography and art classes tend to take place in the fields amidst the llamas.  Full details will be available before you book the session, but if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.


Crafty Llamas!

'Crafty Llamas!' is a fun and educational workshop for children during school holidays.

Half-Term Holiday Activities June 2023

pre-booking is essential


Thursday June 1st 2023, 10.30am-12noon

Make a model llama

In this event, children get the opportunity to build and decorate their very own wooden llama, in our unique outdoor classroom, whilst llamas graze quietly outside.  Suitable for children aged 4-8 years of age.  However, you know your children and if you think they would enjoy this activity - please book them in!

After the crafting session, everyone will then get the chance to meet and feed more, real-life llamas, where they can interact with these gentle and fascinating animals and learn more about their behaviour and habitats.

This event aims to encourage creativity, imagination and an appreciation for animals and nature amongst children, while providing a unique and exciting experience that they will always remember!

All craft materials (and carrots) are provided!

Younger siblings are welcome to attend both workshops - we do a reduced-rate ticket enabling them to enjoy making some foam-based llama magnets, before meeting and feeding our herd of real-life llamas
