Family Clay Workshop with Annabel Johnson

Overview

Back by popular demand, artist educator and ceramicist Annabel Johnson returns for the hands-on family workshop exploring clay, print and pattern. Inspired by our current exhibitions Marthe Armitage: Pattern Maker and Phoebe Collings-James: a rose, a bridge, a house, families will experiment with leaf impressions and clay printing techniques.

Book either the morning or afternoon session to create your own small leaf-printed dish to take home and contribute to a ‘growing garden’ collaborative clay artwork. A relaxed, creative session designed for families to explore materials, texture and nature together.

Suitable for families with children aged 5+.
