Little Creative Morning: Monster Mask Making

Join artist-educator Fibi Cowley for a playful, hands-on morning inspired by The Children are Now.

In this session, children will dive into the world of monsters, embracing their wild side and transforming into imaginative “creature” characters of their own design. Using pre-cut paper mask templates and a range of collage materials, participants will build and decorate their own monster masks, with the option to add claws, hands, or feet for a full transformation.

Once in character, children can choose to step in front of a greenscreen to record short clips of their character in action. These recordings will form part of a collaborative mini film created from this workshop and our next Little Creative Morning on Saturday 31 January.

Each session can also be booked independently.

Please book a ticket for both child and accompanying adult.
