CRAFT that CARES with Artist Jude Wood April 2024
Bringing people together through the art of making!
Come and join us for a couple of hours on a Friday morning from 10am – 12pm or in the afternoon from 1pm – 3pm throughout the Spring season. Helped along with a nice cup of tea or coffee (and some biscuits!)
These inspired therapeutic sessions will introduce you to the different processes of making related to craft, using a variety of materials which can be used as tools to relax the mind and to re-connect with ourselves.
A 6-week block for each new exhibition, each block will include a visiting maker to lead a practical session based on the craftwork in the main galleries.
An opportunity to gift yourself some ‘me’ time and be creative in a relaxed, supportive ‘no fail-no judgement’ environment.
The sessions will focus on the enjoyment of the process and not necessarily a single finished piece of work
…………
Block Four
For our 4th block we will be working with clay. You will have the exciting opportunity to explore the versatile nature of this medium in creating characterful animals and birds. Drawing inspiration from Susan Halls captivating exhibition ‘Biting Back’ in the main galleries.
Friday Dates: 12, 19, 26 April & 3, 10, 17 May 2024
Visiting Maker: Printmaker Eleri Jones will join us on the 26 April
