Come and join us this Easter as we embark on making a large-scale spring garden here in the East Quay Courtyard (or Creator Space if the weather is not on our side). For the next 3 days, we will make new elements of this collaged installation, with lots of opportunities for collaborative mark making and process art, along with more intricate outcomes too.
Children’s work will remain with the installation, but please leave a name and contact number attached to your child’s piece if they have made something they would eventually like to keep.
The work will be displayed in East Quay’s Creator Space.
