Prompts - A Mixed Media Exhibition
A Group Show
by artists and students on the Exploring Arts: Mixed Media Course at Enjoy Learning
Preview with Wine & Nibbles 12th June 2026
combining layers of pastel, pencil, watercolour, pen, acrylic and more, the work celebrates the joy of creativity.
Prompts
In each session, the group receive prompts from artist and facilitator – Anna Stevens – by which to explore creative freedom and develop a range of experimental outcomes.
Although following the same instructions, each artist’s unique interpretation, flare and identity shine from the artworks’ surfaces.
By combining layers of pastel, pencil, watercolour, pen, acrylic and more, the work celebrates the joy of creativity. This exhibition serves as a celebration of connection between community members and the freedom to play – even (and especially) as adults. We invite you to journey through the prompts and their visual conclusions. Thank you to BL6 for their support and hosting.
