This Summer School is perfect for children who love making and creating! Each day we will be doing a different mix of creative, engaging, and playful arts and crafts - including textiles, collage, drawing, printing, and more!
Each session will have a different mix of activities inspired by the works in the Gallery exhibition 'Many Hands’, and led by a mix of experienced freelance practitioners and our Gallery team. Each day the children will respond creatively to a piece of work by a particular artist in the exhibition.
This weeks session is run by Arts Educator Aran Harris!
This workshop aims to let our attendees have a few hours to create freely, learn about how photography shoots work, create fun and engaging moodboards and visual plans. The second session involves a group project, shooting a real photoshoot alongside a 'role model'. Each attendee will choose and perform their role in the group: director, stylist, photographer, hair stylist, etc.
Aran Llewelyn Harris is a fashion and documentary photographer from South Wales with a passion for social impact and community engagement. "Working on previous youth projects has taught me the importance of including and influencing the next generation of creatives.
The aim of Summer School is to make this summer’s creative, playful and fun activities accessible for young people. Allowing children to make new friends, develop new skills and experience an arts environment in their local area. We want to integrate the creativity and voices of the younger generation in the heart of the mill. Have them involved and become part of the shaping of its future.
All materials are included, and no previous art experience is needed.
Please ensure children wear clothes they don't mind getting messy.
Each workshop also includes drinks and snacks for every child.
Suitable for children aged 10-14 years old.
Parents need not attend, but must drop off and pick up children promptly.
This workshops will be taking place in The Finishing space which is located next to Record Plant. We will meet in the Gallery before the exhibition starts to explore to exhibtion .
