Sweetie Pop - the art of packaging
Wednesday 20th August 2025
10:00-3:00
Age 7-14
Taught by Emma Prentice
Spend a full day completely immersed in the colourful, creative world of sweets and lollipops in our joyful Sweetie Pop workshop! Inspired by real artists who have found beauty in the world of sugar - like Sarah Graham and even Salvador Dalí, who famously designed the Chupa Chups logo - this workshop is a feast for the eyes and imagination.
In the morning, young artists will focus on drawing and collage, using coloured papers and mixed media to explore the shapes, colours, patterns, and packaging of classic Swizzels sweets. From Love Hearts to Refreshers, we’ll look at how form, branding, and design play a role in how we experience sweet treats.
In the afternoon, the focus shifts to painting and pop art, as each child designs their own bold, eye-catching Chupa Chups style lollipop wrapper. They’ll work on a small square canvas, choosing striking backgrounds and painting their final design using watercolours and vibrant detail. Expect a riot of colour, pattern, and personality in every piece!
Throughout the day, children will develop their drawing, collage, design, and painting skills, all while surrounded by the joy of sweets - not just the taste, but the incredible art and creativity they inspire. They’ll go home with new skills, a pop art masterpiece, and maybe even a pocketful of treats*.
*no sweets will be eaten during the workshop
Where will the workshops take place?
At the Beth Morris Workshops studio, The Dairy in the grounds of Insole Court, Cardiff. The children will create together around a large table.
Do they need a packed lunch and snacks?
Yes, they can sit in the workspace outside the studio, and in drier weather on the immediate paved /grassed area by the window. The tutor will be setting up for the next task at lunch so your child will need to be able to entertain themselves and chat with new friends. We cannot allow children to visit the cafe area if they are left in our care, so please supply a packed lunch, and drinks. You could also pick your child up at lunch time if you’d prefer.
Is there a discount for siblings?
Of course. If you are booking more than one child in the same household (siblings) onto a course please use the code WEAREFAMILY to take 10% off your overall in-person workshop booking. Please don’t use the code unless you are booking for siblings though. This is not a code for parents to book 2 friends on. It’s to support families with more than one child attending 😊 This code is only for children’s holiday workshops.
Do I have to adhere to the age guidelines when booking?
Yes please. I have years of teaching experience and I am the Mum of three, so I set the age limits for a reason. The tasks are age appropriate and the children / young people should all feel comfortable with their peers.
My child has additional learning needs - Is the workshop suitable?
We can not offer 1:1 support unfortunately, but if they can work semi-independently with 14 peers, they will love our fun inclusive and relaxed workshops. The tutor will make sure they understand the tasks and support them within the session. On booking, please email info@bethmorrisworkshops.co.uk with any extra information that will help us support your child so we can be fully prepared. You know your child best so please talk to us so we can help.
Does my child need to bring any materials or art supplies?
No, all materials are included in the price of the workshop, just don’t wear your best clothes!
