A fun crafting session for all. Our friendly staff will be on hand to support, and a variety of materials will be available.
This February half term we're making portraits using air drying clay.
Roll out the clay and sculpt features to make a face. Press it together with your fingers and a dab of water. Will you make a portrait of yourself, someone you're with, or a face inspired by the artworks in the gallery?
Take your clay home and leave it to dry naturally (24 - 72 hours). You can then paint it at home. If you prefer, you can arrange to come and paint it at the Shipley and we'll provide everything you need - to arrange this please email Hannah.Mackay-Jackson@northeastmuseums.org.uk
Suitable for all ages, recommended 3+.
