Art in the secret garden This is one to get your team expressing themselves and to kick start the conversation
With the hotel’s Queen Anne architecture as the backdrop, and the activity based in the hotel’s secret walled garden, participants are able to express themselves through colour, hue and medium. Whether it’s bold and directional or gentle and discreet your artwork doesn’t need to replicate your management style, instead it’s an opportunity to step back, reconsider and soak in the environment. Royal Berkshire has a heritage for leadership having been built by the Churchill family and inhabited by Prime Minister Sir Robert Walpole’s daughter. It is also known for innovation and in the early 19th century was one of the first private houses to install a private swimming pool. Leadership and innovation continue to precede events hosted at the Royal Berkshire and by bringing these experiences to business gatherings we are giving a modern take on the location’s longstanding values. This activity can be used as a quick fix of fresh air or for a longer session learning more about focal points, structure, and balance; perfect business learnings and the very reason for the saying that ‘art mimics life’! What’s the benefit? Art is a fantastic way of getting a group of people to express their individuality in a non-judgemental atmosphere. Harking back to our formative years of learning, art calms and connects us with others What you need A creative head and an over-shirt in case of splashes and dashes of paint.
