As part of the Threads and Textiles Festival, artist Ron Te Kawa will be presenting a workshop at the NZ Portrait Gallery.
Ron will be sharing how to create an upcycled original textile portrait of yourself (or who you wish to be!). This workshop is open to all ages, so bring the tamariki along!
If you can please bring your favourite bright fabrics, old clothes, blankets, linens, and any old textiles to create your fabric-mache artwork!
If you have a sewing machine you would like to use or some needle and thread, bring that also. If not, that is all good too - you will be fabric macheting with glues provided.
The Gallery will provide scissors, glue, some fabrics and materials and refreshments.
Facemasks and vaccine passes required.
Numbers are limited, so you will need to book a place in the workshop below.
