The Emporium - Carlisle

Recently went to an evening workshop. Natalie was very well organised and set a lovely welcoming and encouraging tone for the evening. Her instructions were clear and feedback constructive and clear. After more than 30 years of not painting or drawing I am inspired and motivated to make a start.
No doubt with the aid of a few more workshops at the Emporium.
It is a lovely place to seek out a " different" more unique gift.
Excellent

I attended a candle making evening which was throughly enjoyed although it was very cold in the workshop. After getting the candle home, it cracked the first time using this, I returned it back and I was told it would be fixed for me. 2 weeks later the candle has still not been fixed, I therefore requested a refund (£28), four days on I have still not received this. I am disappointed by the poor service I have received here and would not recommend.

Fabulous little place in Carlisle. All sorts of courses for a variety of different interests with excellent drinks and bathroom facilities.

Recently attended a medium evening, which was fabulous. The atmosphere in the shop was magical and Kathryn, the medium went out of her way to pass on as many messages as possible.

I’ve also attended several different classes like soap and candle making. The staff are knowledgable and have high quality equipment available. There are also plenty of different options to make a final product you love.

I’ve also recently found out a charity is ran from the shop to support vulnerable members of the community. I think this is a fab use of this wonderful local resource and bring opportunities to people who may not otherwise receive them.

Finally as a shop they are fab. They stock all sorts of products made by local makers so support a wide range of people.

I think it’s really important to support local independent businesses like this who give so much back to the community they are based in.

Attended the mediumship night on Saturday evening and what a miraculous evening. Watching the sheer joy, comfort and closure Kathryn Miller brought to several people was absolutely magical. Staff were polite and friendly, room was the perfect size and the ability to pop out for a cigarette during the evening was essential to both myself and many of the other people. Spoke to several people who attended and those I spoke to had the same feeling of amazement from watching Kathy connect with spirit and enjoyed the venue. SO EXCITED for the next one!

I've just attended the aromatherapy candle making class, which was fun and informative. Natalie was very knowledgeable and helpful plus great fun. And as a bonus you get to make candles and wax melts to take home. So looking forward to the other classes I've booked 😊😍

Amazing, creative shop. I went to a watercolour workshop which was brilliant and excellent value for money. Met some lovely people and learned about texture in watercolour with Seren (forgive me if I've spelt that wrong) who was an excellent teacher and talented artist. I am booked on another workshop in August and then I will be booking more and shopping in that amazing shop!
