Family Making Sessions

These two hour workshops are designed to get both you and your child’s imagination flowing. Choose between collaborating on drawing challenges, or even getting messy with clay, these workshops will be fun for the whole family.

Suitable for ages 6 and up. Parents and guardians are asked to accompany their children throughout the workshops but are not required to purchase a separate ticket.

Upcoming dates:

14 August – Still Life Drawing Challenges

You will be set a series of drawing challenges – including blind drawing, drawing with non-dominant hand, single line drawing, textured line drawing, trace drawing and pressure drawings.

20 August – Fantastic Flowers

Using air dry clay, make your own beautiful flower. Pressing, rolling, tearing and pinching – form each petal and parts of the flower, and use slip to build your flower and bring it to life.

 26 August (Bank Holiday) – Colourful Pop Art

Explore using recycling to make a 3D still life junk meal, including pizza and chips, ice creams, ice lollies and cupcakes.

Things to note and what to bring

All materials will be provided and we advise that children wear comfortable clothing that they can get messy.

We may wish to use photographs you share of you, your child, or their artwork on our website or social media for marketing purposes. Please let us know if you do not consent to this usage.

We believe art is for everyone, and endeavour to make any reasonable adjustment for participants.
