ETCH & PRINT WILD ANIMALS
Art on the Hill exhibitor Liam Biswell will be guiding children on how to create striking prints of their favourite animals using an Etching press (which is really fun). Choose an animal image from a selection that Liam will bring along with him or why not bring along your own animal picture or maybe a photo of your pet. If you do decide to bring your own picture make sure it is around A6 size. We will be using the etching press and various exciting printmaking equipment.

WET FELTING ART
Wet Felting – Learn the origins and method of turning wool into fabric, but with a creative twist. Children will enjoy the tactile nature of this workshop, first by thinning stretching and layering the carded wool and then the messy bit! Making felt involves water, soap, rubbing, rolling and a real workout! Lots of fun and a new technique to try. We will have to rinse our felt once it is formed, so please feel free to pop back later to collect your work.
