Soap Making
AN EVENING WORKSHOP WITH ROCIO GARCIA
Friday 4 September 2026, 6 to 8pm, £35
Collect your soap on Sunday 6 September- 11am to 12 noon
This workshop is for adults (18+).
Come to make your own natural soaps with your favourite ingredients.
You will work from a single soap mix for which you will see all stages, learn about formulas (and how to create your own in future) and learn about the safety aspects of making soaps.
Each attendee can then personalise their own soaps with natural essences, ingredients and colours of their choice.
Rocio will provide all materials for each person to make (and take home) approximately three bars of soap.
You will need to leave the soaps to do their first cure at City Arts over night and come back on Sunday (21 April 2024) to unveil and take them home for further curing.
Rocio will provide you with instructions for the further curing of the soaps and storage.
