Join artist Ruby for a drop in experimental mark-making session
Come and create a participatory artwork through mark-making with anything but your hands! Explore using mark-making tools provided, designed to be moved with elbows, faces, feet, and knees. Experiment to see the different ways you end up drawing and painting when you use a different part of your body to do it. If you have any questions about what's involved and access needs relatingg to this please give us an email to [email protected]

The session is drop in and open to all ages and genearations to come and make together. The studios capacity is 20, so if we become full we may need to ask you to wait till space becomes available.
For families - an adult is required to stay with their child throughout the duration of the session.
