Concrete Casting Taster Session

The aim of the concrete workshop is to explore this incredible material and to encourage the confidence to try out personal projects at home.

The concrete taster session offers the opportunity to learn about the raw materials that make up concrete through developing concrete recipes, which will be mixed and then cast during the workshop. .
Concrete has the fantastic ability to imitate any surface it is cast against which will be explored in the session by casting in pre-prepared moulds with various surfaces. Pigments can be added to the concrete mix to colour the concrete.
