Call out to Hunter Health Workers! We are running a series of workshops for our local health industry - from hospital cleaners to consultants, pharmacists to psychologists. Whatever your field, as long as it involves health, and you can show us, we would love to have you come along and get creative in our little Hum.
We've all faced incredible challenges this year and particularly our health workers. As a way of saying 'thanks' we are offering our local health community a series of 'Scrubs-Off Art' workshops. These workshops are generously supported by City of Newcastle.
Join us for this special opportunity to try your hand at clay 'sketching'. Figurative artist Yvette Ten-Bohmer, will guide you through the process of creating a 3D 'sketch' with clay and a life model. This workshop will help improve your observation, develop your fine-motor and problem-solving skills and, not to mention, be soooo much fun!
While you get to take home your very own sculpture made from air-dry clay, the main objective is to improve observation skills and general brain joy!
There is no skill level necessary for this workshop, just an openness to come and try something new.
