School Holiday Workshop: Memory Boxes with Eleesa Howard

Next date: Tuesday, 07 April 2026 | 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM

Come along for a fun and creative workshop with local artist Eleesa Howard.

Morning workshop: 5 - 8 years olds (10am - 11.30am)

Afternoon workshop: 9 -12 years old (1pm - 3pm)

In this hands-on workshop, each participant will make their own Memory Box — a special place to hold treasured memories, moments, or gentle reminders. Together, we’ll think about thoughts and feelings that might live inside the box. It could be a place for affirmations like I am kind, reading is my superpower, take chances, or be brave — or simply make space to collect meaningful ideas and memories throughout the year!

Using an assortment of paper, stickers, markers and collage materials, children will be encouraged to explore creativity in a relaxed and supportive environment. There’s no right or wrong way to make, just space to imagine, play, and express.

Bring a friend, or make some new ones along the way. This is an inclusive, beginner-friendly workshop designed to build confidence, creativity, and connection.

Registration is essential as numbers are limited to 12 children. All materials supplied. A smock or apron is recommended.

Parents, guardians or care givers are required to stay on site for the duration of the program.
