Suitable for all abilities, the workshops will focus on building confidence in your drawing abilities - concentrating on the soothing journey of the drawing experience, rather than the finished drawing.

In each session you'll explore how to produce different types of patterns in abstract drawings - looking at different designs each week.

Dir: Olivia Wilde 2022 | 123 mins

Alice (Florence Pugh) and Jack (Harry Styles) are lucky to be living in the idealised community of Victory.

It’s an experimental company town housing the men who work for the top-secret Victory Project and their families.

CEO Frank (Chris Pine) is equal parts corporate visionary and motivational life coach. He espouses a 1950s societal optimism which anchors every aspect of daily life in the tight-knit desert utopia.

While the husbands spend every day inside the Victory Project Headquarters, their wives spend their time enjoying the beauty, luxury and debauchery of their community.

But cracks in their idyllic life begin to appear. Alice can’t help questioning exactly what they’re doing in Victory – and why.

An audacious, twisted and visually stunning psychological thriller.
