Monsters in the Making…
Saturday 29 February & Sunday 1 March
11:00 am- 1pm & 2 pm- 4 pm
There’s a mini monster! Where? There! WHERE? In the artist garden….
This activity offers the excitement of discovering a monster hidden in the Artist Garden, and the opportunity to create your own individual narratives and a 3D friend for your found monster. Be encouraged to develop stories and make your own clay creation back in the Learning Studio. Where did you spot your monster? Did you take a photo of them? What do they look like? What do they like to eat? Is your Monster good at art? Is that why they were in the artist garden or perhaps they like to sit and look at the shapes in clouds/a day dreamer? Free family friendly drop in work shop. All material included. Gallery admission applies.
Whacky and Wonderful
Saturday 7 & 8 March
11am-1pm & 2pm-4pm
Create whacky and wonderful textured creations using air drying clay and combinations of everyday materials in this family friendly workshop inspired by Gillian Lowndes. One of the most unusual things about Gillian Lowndes work is the different materials she uses. She called herself a “materials-driven artist” and she experimented with lots of new techniques and ways of working with clay, often including other types of materials and ‘found’ objects in her work. Why not come along and be inspired! Free family friendly drop in work shop. All material included. Gallery admission applies.
