What is your favourite sea creature. Do you realise they are slowly losing their homes. In this workshop we invite you to create a wonderful home for your favourite sea creature. It can be as crazy as you like, or nice and simple, as long as it provides them with a safe space to live in the sea.
Tinker School – taking old toys and reassembling them.
10-14yr olds
10.30am – 12.30pm Wednesday 29 April
Come along and tinker. Using old toys and found objects, deconstruct and reconstruct them to create your own disturbing, ridiculous or weird creation. This is the 1st of our Tinker School Workshops, a new way to learn, create and make art using found, upcycled and unusual objects. No rules on what you make.
