Looking for a fun and creative activity for teenagers in Doncaster? Join our Paper Crafts Workshop — a hands-on arts and crafts session designed for young people aged 12–18, or up to 25 with diagnosed Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
Thanks to support from Doncaster’s Universal Fund, this friendly workshop helps teens unwind, try new skills, and express themselves through colour, texture, and design. It’s a great way to build confidence in a calm, supportive, and inclusive space.
✂️ Workshop Overview: Paper Crafts
In this 3-hour session, teens will explore a range of papercraft techniques to create unique, handmade projects they can take home. Using vibrant papers, card, and embellishments, each participant will:
Choose from a range of creative paper projects, such as cards, gift boxes, wall art, bookmarks, or origami
Learn simple cutting, folding, and layering techniques
Use punches, stamps, and decorative tools
Personalise their work with drawings, lettering, stickers, and craft elements
Develop their own designs while receiving plenty of creative inspiration
By the end of the session, each teen will leave with a selection of beautiful paper crafts — perfect for gifting, displaying, or keeping as a creative keepsake.
This session supports self-expression, coordination, and confidence — all in a relaxed, fun environment.
