Courses are being offered at the Tees Forest to encourage people back to the countryside.
More than 20 courses have been organised this spring and summer to introduce people to traditional woodcraft and art activities.
Courses include basket making, greenwood turning, painting and photography.
They are led by craftsmen and artists who will provide instruction and demonstrations as well as practical tips.
Experience is not needed to take part in the courses.
There is a small charge for each course to cover materials and tuition. The courses run from 10am to 5pm. To book a place, or for details, call (01388) 817336.
