Event Description

Reimagine the everyday with artist Ruth Downes and make your own wearable art!

In this intergenerational workshop designed for both children and seniors, you will work in pairs to experiment with transforming materials into the extraordinary.

Celebrate Victorian Seniors Festival in this hands on workshop perfect for pairs of seniors and children. Guided by Ruth Downes' trademark humour and playful approach to reimagining ordinary objects, you will leave with your own unique creation to take home.

Wander through Ruth's Barely Wearable exhibition at CS Gallery for inspiration before creating your own work of art.
