Saturday 15 June
10.30am – 3.30pm
In this workshop, you will play with found objects and items meaningful to you, exploring new ideas and materials to create experimental compositions. Rebecca will show you techniques and approaches to help you go with the flow, and move past things that may block you from achieving your creative ambitions. You’ll learn to trust your instincts to make decisions about your art-making. Rebecca will share her creative processes, including how to research, develop ideas, experiment, and allow chance to help inform creative work. Come along to this supportive space where you'll be encouraged to try things out, without the worry of being judged by others (or yourself!).
