In this workshop, participants learn how to fold a simple ‘zine’ from a sheet of paper, and use cut-out or black-out words to fill it with poetry. The constraint of having a limited selection of words encourages participants to use creative turns of phrase to get their message across. You can see an example of this activity here.

In this workshop, participants combine stencils with paint, markers and soft pastels to create unique characters. They learn how to use simple shapes and line-making to create effective designs, without the need for advanced illustration skills.

This workshop is designed for community groups, such as schools and neighbourhood festivals. In it, participants work together to paint a mural or large canvas filled with self-portraits, creating a special memento of the people and place they belong to.

If you’re interested in me running a workshop at your event, but think a different activity would better cater to your audience, please reach out! I am happy to work with you to develop another idea.
