Buy Tickets >Step into the magical world of Greek mythology and create a clay figure inspired by Barbara Hepworth’s abstract sculptures!
Choose a mythological character – perhaps a magical bird, a sea spirit, a mountain goddess or a brave hero – and explore how their story, movement and personality can be shown through shapes rather than realistic details. Using curved lines, open spaces, geometric shapes and colour, you will design your own unique creation before bringing it to life in clay as a fantastical mythological creature.
This fun, hands-on workshop invites you to experiment with shapes, colours and symbols, and use your imagination discover how simple forms can tell powerful stories.
