WHAT’S ON OFFER

Curiosity Workshops offer a variety of experiences and learning opportunities, with accessibility and flexibility high priorities.

Get in touch for pricing according to your capacity, and for activities according to your needs, across the following categories:

  • POP-UP WORKSHOPS

    Like busking but with live learning. Freely available for all, welcoming big and small, with the audience a part of the music. Donations welcome

  • EVENTS AND FESTIVALS

    Bringing a little wonder to events of all sizes: from parties and neighbourhood gatherings; to full blown festivals and Hackney Carnivals

  • CRAFTING CLUBS

    Do-It-Together activities where the process of making a Curiosity Workshop gadget - a sundial, for example - allows deeper learnings

  • BESPOKE TUITION

    Hand-crafted tutoring and exploration, whether one-on-one or in small groups; in-person or online. Includes access to London workshops for hands-on creations

Pocket Sundial Making Workshops

There’s a surprising amount in an adjustable stick on a flat surface. Beyond a clock, did you know a sundial could be used as a compass, calendar and GPS system?

Come on a journey spanning astronomy, maths, languages and craft; from ancient wisdom to the frontiers of contemporary knowledge and technology.

Afterall, that little adjustable stick isn’t called a gnomon - ‘one that knows’ - for nothing.

UPCOMING

Curiosity Workshops will be hosting several Sundial Making Workshops over the Easter holidays, including at the wonderful Streatham Common Community Gardens. Each session is independent, and you’ll walk away with your own Pocket Sundial, an understanding of how to use it, and more.
