Unfolding Stories of the Garden
Artist: Josh Bilton
Dates: Monday 29 May/Thursday 1 June/Friday 2 June
Times: 10.30am – 12.30pm
During this three-day workshop, families will work to construct a large boat raft in the garden and create their own stories inspired by the garden. Each morning, you will explore stories of woodland creatures and folklore that will inspire you to create your own animal and plant forms through clay, paint and large-scale sculpture. By day three we will be ready to sail our raft in the garden and to perform our stories.
