Event description

Step into a workshop where language becomes a visual playground.

You’ll explore text and typeface as creative tools – cutting, layering, and collaging words and letters into bold, experimental compositions. Through playful exercises, you’ll discover how text can move beyond communication to become pattern, and image in its own right.

Alongside the visual work, you’ll experiment with sound – exploring how sound and music can sit alongside and amplify your creations. And for those curious to push the experiment further, there’ll be an opportunity to step behind the decks and try your hand at DJing.

Creative workshops for 11–16 year olds—kids only!
