FREE activities this Sunday at Rawlins' Christmas Craft Fair

During the craft fair, for the fourth year running, I will be offering free activities for kids on the stage at Rawlins. This year, we are making baubles, gift tags and textiles wreaths- a beautiful piece to decorate your front door for winter.

Starting at 11.30am and running right up to 4.30pm- hopefully I'll see you all there!

Recycled surreal sculpture at WOODBROOK VALE

This morning saw a room full of year 8 boys and recycled materials at Woodbrook Vale for my surrealism-inspired sculpture workshop. Techniques and finishes were the focus as we all experimented with manipulating familiar materials like plastic milk bottles and cereal boxes.

AFTER SCHOOL CLUB AT RAWLINS: jewellery and wire work

Starting last week, I have over 12 children aged between 7 and 14 taking part in this new and exciting club. There are still places available and you can join anytime! Just call 01509 622821.

Tonight, we are experimenting with wire shapes and fantasy film to create jewellery and mini sculptures. Other sessions will include marbling, paper sculpture and beads, gift boxes and using found materials and items to design bespoke pieces.

The BIG DRAW at Cossington Primary school

My new after school club: '100 drawings: the BIG draw' kicked off last night with 22 children aged from 8 to 11 engaging in a workshop designed to introduce 100 kinds of drawing. We began with 20 different drawing techniques and soon there was a lively debate as we all contributed our ideas.

The children have designed this course themselves: it is only available to Cossington Primary at the moment but I will be feeding these resources into my event for WORLD COMMUNITY ARTS DAY in February next year!
