Led by artist Laura X Carle, create an enormous postcard! Imagine you are going on a trip to another country – what would you write on a postcard home? In this workshop you will use drawing and collage to create large-scale images on giant postcards to send messages home.

At the end of the workshop you'll be free to take your creation home!

Recommended for children aged 5-12. Each workshop is 2 hours long.

What’s included with my ticket?

Led by a professional artist with all materials provided, all you have to do is bring yourselves! But remember, art is all about getting messy; we'll provide the aprons but you should come dressed for a mess. Tickets also include free entry to the Museum so you can explore at your leisure.
