December Make It Yours

About Our Make It Yours Sessions

You’re invited to drop into our Creative Courtyard and make something inspired by the museum collection.

Our creative sessions are free and open to all. Join us to make and create together and contribute to our growing museum! The sessions will be led by artists, makers, and writers, all influenced by this unique museum.

Friday 1 December: ‘Art from the Heart’ Stitched Collage Workshop
Join poet Michelle Hubbard for a mindful, slow-stitch session inspired by the beautiful ‘Caged Heart’ currently on display in our Ingenuity Exhibition. Using tactile materials, you’ll stitch words of inspiration to create a collaged heart, to take away just in time for the holiday season.

Friday 8 December: Drawing and Mark Making Workshop

Join illustrator Hannah Sawtell to respond to examples of artworks in the Ingenuity exhibition that use found and household materials to access and harness creativity.

Friday 15 December: ‘ What's Inside?' Stitched Koala Workshop

Join textile artist Alice Cobbin to create your own version of ‘Heavy Wadding’ the resident stuffed Koala, in the Ingenuity exhibition.
