Painting,
by alpacas
Meet our fluffy resident artists. Dip their noses, hold the canvas, and take home an original masterpiece — snuffled into existence by an alpaca. We understand that new experiences can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially in busy or stimulating environments. Our aim is to make sure everyone can enjoy the experience in a way that feels right for them.
Book a session — £20 (Carers go free)
Three ways we keep things comfortable
Quieter Time
We schedule the experience during calmer periods with less coming and going to help create a more relaxed environment.
Space to take a break
Take your time, with a separate quiet area available if you need to step away from the activity, plus alpacas nearby in a calmer pen for a gentler introduction.
Trained support staff
Our alternative provision trained team are on hand throughout to facilitate and support the experience as needed.
No two paintings are ever the same
Some alpacas are bold expressionists. Others go full minimalist with one perfectly placed snoot-print. Every canvas is a tiny, woolly miracle.
- 10×10″ canvas
- Pet-safe, washable acrylics in 6 colours

Curious? Of course you are
Is the paint safe for the alpacas?
Absolutely. We use only non-toxic, washable, vet-approved acrylics. The herd gets a gentle clean-up after every session.
Can children join in?
Yes! Children are welcome with an adult or carer. The alpacas are very gentle.
What should I wear?
Something you don't mind getting a friendly snuffle on.
How long does it take?
About 30 minutes — plenty of time to meet the herd, paint, and pose for photos.
£20 per person. Carers go free.
Limited to 10 painters per slot, so the alpacas don't get stage fright.
