Art Masterclass: Clay Heads

Thursday 15th February 

Our latest Art Masterclass allows children to get hands-on with clay by making their own self-portrait-inspired clay head. A member of our Learning Team will support your budding artist using various techniques and tools to bring their portrait to life.

Art Masterclass: Figure Drawing

Thursday 28th March 

Our latest Art Masterclass instalment will enable participants to learn the techniques of drawing from a costumed life model. Creative minds will feel like true artists as they work with easels and use a range of art materials while being guided by our learning team to improve their technique.

Art Masterclass: Screen-printing

Thursday 4th April 

Continuing with our programme of exciting Art Masterclasses for children 8-14-year-olds, we will be discovering the techniques for screen printing using Coventry’s Street Scene & Art as inspiration. Children will design their own stencil to use for printing with fabric paints onto a cotton canvas material they can take home and frame.
