A colourful and immersive workshop at Downtown Colorville

Join us, on the cusp of a rare blue moon in may for a multi-sensory feast. We will be diving into the world of colour, through cake paint, sound and cacao ceremony in our playful paint playshop on the Queens Road.

We invite you to a tart-making workshop by Poppy at Sable Tart making glazes over ice cream like cakes. These cake colours have been chosen specially to evoke the blues and greens of the seaside town of Hastings under this rare blue moon. Think blueberry-flavoured colours, with lilac purples and roasted black sesame. Eat patisserie, drink ambient tea and immerse yourself in synaesthetic soundtrack flavour and pure unadulterated joy.

Rothko-Inspired Painting Workshop

Led by Gemma Lloyd

Play with colour, texture and emotion by gently painting onto hand-stretched muslin canvases with specially mixed paint by Simon. Inspired by Rothko, this workshop invites you to let go of the outside world stresses and enjoy the childlike sensory calm of marking tactile brushes to canvas in a shared dreamlike and suspended state.

Ritual Cacao Experience

With Cacao de Mer

Launette will serve ritual cacao by the cup.

Warming and nutrient-dense. poured into colourfully glazed handmade ceramics.

Guests will be invited to customise and adorn their drinks with a palette of colourful powders made from dried fruits, flowers and mushrooms.

The evening will be soundtracked by Ben Chernett, who will create a bespoke sonic piece from the sea of Hastings. Expect to be transported somewhere sweet and melodious, far, far away and a little familiar too.
