Family Art Workshop - Make your own shadow theatre
7 February – 21 February 2021
10:00 – 11:00
Join our resident family artist for February, Sarah-Jane Mason, and explore the wonders of storytelling through the magical world of light and shadow.
Starting on Sunday 7th February, Sarah-Jane will be live online for sessions throughout February, taking you on an exploration of light and shadow through storytelling, designing, making, and puppeteering; all whilst having fun with lots of other families.
In these online workshops, you'll learn how to create an incredible shadow theatre and put on your very own collaborative performance.
Please see below for information on all five of our February workshops, and to book your place on one of our shadow theatre sessions.
