This hands-on workshop invites kids to take a look in the mirror to create their own ceramic self-portrait, inspired by Camille Olsen-Ormandy’s vanity mirror-framed portrait in the Archibald Prize 2026.

Beginning with a tour through the exhibition for inspiration, kids will head into the workshop to paint their portraits in underglaze on ready-made clay “mirrors”, with plenty of room for decorations and customisations.

Finished works will be glazed and fired at SAM, ready to be collected at a later date.

This workshop is suitable for kids aged 5-12. All participants must be accompanied by an adult.
