Art workshops (age 8 - 12)

Saturday 25 July - Marlou Fernanda
How do lines become stories? With music as your guide, you’ll intuitively create your own artwork. Discover new figures, worlds and stories in your own drawing. Sometimes the most beautiful things emerge when you don’t have a plan.

Wednesday 29 July - Gio Georgescu
What do you want to share? In this workshop, you will create your own zine about something you're passionate about. Not only will you draw and collage your own pages, but you will then bind all your contributions together into a real book that you can take home!

Saturday 1 August - Anouschka Boswijk
Create a parade of moving figures! You’ll make, paint and decorate your own fantasy figure out of cardboard, which can really move. Together, we’ll turn these figures into a cheerful parade.
