You are invited to join an hour-long stencil print workshop to create unique collaborative textile designs with Julie Paterson. Working freely with stencils and print paste, participants are encouraged to let loose and express their creativity in this collaborative workshop.

After a week of making work in the ADC window, Julie invites you to join her in making a unique length of fabric and needs 24 participants to help out. Using her stencils and her print paste, together you will be part of creating a large stencil printed artwork on fabric that will be sold to fundraise for bush fire affected wildlife. You take home your own prototype piece of fabric as well as collaborating on the large scale Sweet Spot community artwork. At the end of the day the work will be cut into 6 panels - 70 x 1m and made available for sale with 30% of the proceeds going to Foundation for Parks and Wildlife.

What you get:

• The opportunity to work along side Julie & take home a prototype piece of fabric that you made with her stencils

• The rewards of being involved with creating a community based artwork

• The knowledge that you helped create something unique that raises money for fire affected wildlife

This workshop is for people of all skill levels and will be a great opportunity to meet like-minded people.

Julie is the founder of ClothFabric and the preeminent textile creator in Australia. See her exhibition Sweet Spot, in Object Space, our 24-hour window gallery at ADC from 31 February – 18 March 2020.
