Art Workshop: Paper Engineering (7 - 11's)

Join us for an exciting paper engineering workshop! Together we'll learn different pop-up, lift-the-flap and 3D paper construction techniques and put them to use creating our own interactive book! We'll plan, sketch, watercolour, snip and fold to create magical worlds that spring off the page. Paper engineering was one of our most-loved topics in our term-time Art Classes and we're excited to bring it back in this new extended workshop.

This workshop is a blend of creative play and skill-building best for young artists aged 7 - 11.
