Hello workshoppers!! It's been a while, but I'm back for this 2-part on-line workshop!

I was kindly invited by Sustainable Kirriemuir to design a workshop for Earth Hour Day.

Are you concerned about global warming? Does plastic pollution upset you? Are you interested in encouraging people to become carbon neutral? Have you been inspired by Greta Thunberg? Do you have a ‘green’ message you are passionate about and want to convey to people?

If so, then this fun and engaging online workshop is for you!

The workshop is suitable for children and young people aged from 5 to 16 of all abilities. (Please note there is a reading/writing element to this workshop which may require support from a parent or guardian depending on age/ability.)

Session One: Saturday 20th March
Session Two: Saturday 27th March (Earth Hour Day)

This workshop is only available for residents of Kirriemuir and the surrounding Glens.

I know it’s been ages since I posted here, but today I started clearing the outside area next to my studio ready for a bit of a makeover. In the hope that workshops may be able to resume outside at some point - certainly sooner than they can inside. Although I do realise it may still be some time yet. But action is a good thing to enable change. 💚
