Using clay, plaster and wire we will spend a day making an orchestra of weird and wonderful people and animals playing instruments. We will have lots of fun learning to draw and paint using stories and music to feed our imaginations, and make wire armatures, mix plaster, model clay and draw feelings.
At the end we will make a little exhibition and have a tea party.

Please wear old clothes and shoes that can get spoiled and bring scraps of material/decorative paper and biscuits,cakes or goodies to share at the tea party.

The cost of the workshop is not inclusive of materials.
Clay, plaster, wire, paper and charcoal will be available to buy on the day.
