Description

Sunday, September 27 | 12pm - 2pm | Soldiers Memorial Hall

Facilitator: Mitch Hearn

Create your own colourful creature artwork to take home! Brainstorm a brand new fantasy critter using some illustrative idea generation, learn about colour theory and unconventional art materials, and then bring your creation to life using oil pastels and paint markers on a cut-out cardboard base. You’ll end up with a personal cardboard creature to hang on your wall or use as a giant monster minifig in your next Dungeons and Dragons campaign!

🌀 Brainstorming and illustrating fantasy creatures

🌀 Executing a visual concept from initial idea to completed artwork

🌀 Learning to use different art mediums and how they work on an unconventional canvas (cardboard)

All materials will be provided.

Anyone under the age of 14 must be attended by a parent or guardian.

We are a creative gathering place and ideas hub. We organise events, gatherings, meetings, workshops, mentoring, projects and everything in between.

We are in the business of bringing local creative ideas to life.

Our vision is that when people think of regional South Australia, they think quirky and inspiring creative experiences in the same way that when people think of Melbourne, they think of fancy coffee.

Our mission is to nurture a creative and connected generation of doers in and from regional South Australia.

We organise projects, events, gatherings, meetings, workshops, mentoring and everything in between to achieve this mission. We present quirky, unique and memorable experiences created and curated by regional artists and thinkers: audio walking tours, immersive theatre, collaborative writing projects, visual arts exhibitions, video game jams, intimate concerts and creative based workshop tasters.

We are inspired by DIY culture, contemporary & experimental art, entrepreneurial thinking, community service and a ferocious pursuit of “how could this be better?”
