These summer school holidays, let your kids dive into a world of colour and creativity! In this playful collage workshop, children aged 9-12 will explore the beauty of nature’s shapes and patterns, from plants to animals, while learning fun ways to observe and bring nature into their art. Led by local artist Alex Stalling, kids will create vibrant, nature-inspired collages on A3 paper, perfect for framing and showing off at home. Join us for a fun and inspiring session that’ll spark young imaginations!
