Join facilitator Bec Hoole for our October Eco Art workshop where we’ll help you transform ordinary garden pots into beautiful and funky messy mosaics. Please note, this is a 4-hour workshop broken over 2 Saturdays: Saturday the 21st of October from 10am to 12pm: STAGE 1 – glue ceramics. Saturday the 28th of October from 10am to 12pm: STAGE 2 – grouting process. We will provide an assortment of ceramics and discarded garden pots for the workshop but we encourage participants to bring along broken crockery or tea sets, which you’d love to incorporate into the final piece. We also recommend bringing a plastic bag for the final workshop to bring your pot home in. This workshop is suitable for ages 13+ and adults. Beginners welcome, all tools and materials provided, and a light morning tea will also be served.
