Venue & Covid-19 : 

​

We firstly want to assure our students that we are taking great care to enforce safe measures for each class & workshop to prevent the spread of Covid-19.  The venue is fumigated between visits and the whole area is cleaned with antibacterial products before and after each visit.  We will only be allowing 15 maximum into the venue that normally holds 50, to ensure space and therefore reassurance during classes.  There are four separate toilets and we will be asking that all students take great care to wash their hands regularly, keep their masks on where possible, especially when moving around the venue, and to keep distance from other students as much as is possible.  We want the class to be enjoyable so any concerns can be relayed to info@thesinclairgallery.com with complete discretion.  We will also have gloves and masks available for use as well as hand sanitisers.  The venue benefits from large windows and doors all round as well as a decking area to the rear for smokers or to get some air.
