Volunteer Willow Workshops: Large Scale Lanterns

Join us at our Willow Workshops and come help us to create Farsley’s first ever large-scale Lantern Festival by volunteering at our weekly sculpture sessions in September.

 

In these workshops you’ll be taught how to create large-scale lantern sculptures using eco-friendly willow and paper.

 

The lanterns will have a wonderfully wholesome ‘Urban Wildlife’ theme and once complete they will be displayed at two spectacular Lantern Parades; one at Farsley’s Lights’ Switch On in November and the other at Farsley's Charity Food Drive in December!

Family Workshop: Headdress Decorating

Join us for a morning (10am - 12noon) or afternoon (1pm - 3pm) of arts and crafts at SCRAP Creative Reuse Project with artist Morwenna Catt.

Morwenna Catt is an internationally exhibiting artist working across media, with a specialism in Textiles and Illustration.  For many years Morwenna has also designed and created large scale characters, costumes, lanterns, banners and site decor for events and parades, working with communities to make their ideas come to life.

What to Expect

Exploring Oil Pastel Drawing with Marcia Brown

Join Marcia for an oil pastel drawing workshop tailored for beginners and improvers.

Learn about oil pastels, surfaces and techniques in the morning followed by creating mark making charts and a monochrome drawing.

As the day progresses you will experiment with still life, colour mixing and paper surfaces. By the end of the workshop you will have produced a drawing of your own inspired by what you have learned.
