Illuminating the Senses – Exploring Light, Shade, through Glass

​​​

Join us for our first creative workshop of the year!  The workshop will focus on material exploration and artistic expression to spark ideas for our Education Exhibition in July. We will explore how light, and shade can create dynamic effects, enhance sensory experiences, and tell compelling stories in art. Together, we’ll experiment with layering techniques, painting on glass, and arranging glass fragments, developing expressive and innovative approaches for the upcoming exhibition.
