About Holiday Art Club
Looking for creative kids engagement these school holidays? Our Holiday Art Club is the perfect bite-sized activity for little artists.
There are two Holiday Art Club sessions. You can choose one or the other, or both!
Session 1: Botanical Drawing and Painting En Plein Air
Thursday 9 July, 1-2:30pm
This workshop takes place at the Community Garden of Bankstown Public School and the Bankstown City Gardens.
In this drawing and painting workshop, students will meet at the Community Garden of Bankstown Public School where they will learn to create colourful botanical artworks with pencils, oil pastels and watercolours inspired by their walk to the Bankstown City Gardens.
Session 2: Ceramic Flower Pots
Thursday 16 July, 1-3pm
This workshop takes place at Bankstown Arts Centre.
In this ceramics workshop, students will meet at Bankstown Arts Centre where they will learn basic ceramic hand-building techniques to create their own flower pots. They will then use flowers, grasses and leaves to create decorative floral imprints in the clay, making their pieces truly unique. After the class, these pieces will be glazed and fired and participants will be notified when they are ready to be collected.
