About this event

 

Session 1: 10am-12pm. Ages 8-12.

Session 2: 1:30pm-3:30pm. Ages 12-16.

Join us for a 2-hour hands-on workshop where creativity meets the coast! Young artists will dive into the world of abstract acrylic painting, exploring the beauty of tidelines, rock pools, cliffs, and beaches, with local artist Jessie Willow Tucker. 

Through playful colour theory and exciting techniques, young artists will learn how to bring their coastal landscapes to life in a fun and inspiring way.

What to bring:

  • Printed photos of beaches or coastal scenes that are special to you – we’ll use them as inspiration for your artwork.
  • A smock or apron.
  • All other materials provided

Jessie Willow Tucker is an artist, illustrator and educator. Her work is inspired by the coastline where she lives, on Bunurong land on the Mornington Peninsula.

Children 12 or under must be accompanied by an adult/co-creator.

Spaces are limited – book now!
