Children's Workshop | Paintbrush Portrait Painting
Inspired by the touring exhibition Archie 100: A Century of the Archibald Prize
Well-known local artist and art educator, Alison Dowell, offers these special workshops at MAGNT inspired by the touring exhibition Archie 100: A Century of the Archibald Prize. Starting in the MAGNT Discovery Centre to look at examples and materials, the workshop will go on a short gallery tour of the ‘Archie 100’ exhibition before the creative process begins.
Using repurposed paint brushes which are caked with dry paint, you will transform them into beautiful works of art.
Suitable for ages 6 to 15 years | $30 per child | Places are limited | Bookings essential.
Ticket includes entry to the exhibition Archie 100: A Century of the Archibald Prize and light refreshments.
