About
Join the monthly children's creative workshops at No.1 Royal Crescent for a delightful exploration of art led by local artists. These engaging sessions are designed to introduce children to various artistic techniques and mediums in a fun and interactive environment.
On July 6th and August 3rd, from 10am to 12pm, young participants will delve into the world of photography portraits. Guided by skilled instructors, they'll have the opportunity to practice photography while learning about Georgian portraits. From experimenting with both old and new cameras to taking photographic portraits inspired by the paintings in No.1 Royal Crescent, children will discover how portraits reflected the fashion and style of the era. They'll even create their own modern-day versions using costumes and props to add a contemporary twist.
While each session covers similar concepts, attendees are welcome to book for both or choose one that piques their interest. Those joining the July workshop will have the exciting opportunity to have their portraits exhibited at both No.1 Royal Crescent and the Holburne Museum. For more details, interested parties can reach out to the artist directly.
These workshops are tailored for children aged 8-14 and are designed to foster creativity and imagination in a supportive setting. It's worth noting that children are encouraged to attend independently if possible, though accommodations can be made if needed.
Sessions take place in the Servant's Hall during museum open hours, offering wheelchair accessibility and proximity to a disabled toilet. For parents waiting, the museum presents an opportunity to explore and perhaps even purchase an annual pass. Additionally, several cafes are conveniently located within a 5-minute walk for added convenience.
About the Artist: Abigail Tinnion, the artist leading these workshops, is a visual artist and folklorist based in the southwest. Her work is deeply rooted in history, storytelling, and imagination, making her the perfect guide for young creatives eager to explore the world of art.
