I’ll be running a drop-in workshop on Saturday 11th February, between 1-4pm at Pannett Art Gallery in Whitby as part of Whitby Bird Brains. If you’re nearby come and make a collaged bird brooch/badge inspired by the recently acquired Soper Collections.
The gallery re-opens with a fantastic display of artwork from the collection, which includes beautiful wildlife drawings and paintings by Eileen Soper along side a selection of ceramic birds by her sister, Eva Soper. These charming artworks are the inspiration for a series of family workshops and activities in the gallery over the coming months.
The workshop is part of The Wild Escape, a national project led by Art Fund.
The Wild Escape is made possible with support from Arts Council
England’s National Lottery Project Grants, with additional support from
Bloomberg Philanthropies, Kusuma Trust, Foyle Foundation and a group of
generous individuals and trusts.
