Creative Nurture Workshops
Market Place, Abingdon, Oxfordshire, OX14 3HG
Art school tutors and staff will be leading free architecturally focused ‘make it and take it home’ workshops for adults and young people aged 5 years and up (under 14s to be accompanied by an adult).
By participating in Aingdon Heritage Weekend Festival, the school aims to break down barriers for engaging with the arts and raise awareness about how creativity promotes positive mental health and improved wellbeing in individuals and communities.
Project Overview
'Architecture' is the theme of the Heritage Open Days 2025 and participants in the workshop will use pre-made stencils of iconic Abingdon buildings to create individual and groups artworks. Plus 3D buildings using recycled Tetrapaks and stencils. The tutors will have experience with working in a variety of educational and cultural settings and with young people with additional educational needs. Participants will be able to use a range of mixed media and learn simple techniques to help them complete their 'project'.
The workshops will run from 11:30am to 2:30pm on a 'drop-in'/ availability seats basis so no pre-booking will be required . Adult parents or carers can work on their own project while assisting their child/children during the workshop.
