Children’s Workshop at Pallant House Gallery

Join us for a creative workshop inspired by the sea, where you’ll make your own mixed media seascape and a circular felted badge or keyring to take home.

Taking inspiration from the shapes and patterns found in Barbara Hepworth’s prints, paintings and sculptures, we’ll have a go at different drawing and mixed media techniques to create our own circular seascapes. We’ll also get hands-on with felt-making to create a sea-inspired badge or keyring of your own.

For children aged 7+.

This workshop is led by an experienced artist educator who specialises in working with children and young people. They are designed for children aged 7+.

Parents or carers are not required to stay for these workshops, although you are welcome to do so if you prefer.

Please provide a packed lunch for your child.
