That’s Creative Podcast!

At PopUp Painting we believe that everybody is innately creative. All people need is the right encouragement, guidance and opportunity.

With that in mind, in lockdown of 2020 we launched That’s Creative! A new podcast exploring the lives of some fantastically creative people. Our guests range from entrepreneurs to artists to campaigners and researchers.

Happy listening!
