10.00am
Make a friendly rainbow snail in collage. Lots of different shapes, textures and colours to choose from to decorate a beautiful shell. Just please take it home so it doesn't eat the plants at Holden Clough...!
12.00 Noon
Be inspired by the beautiful glass house at Holden Clough, and recycle a clear acrylic box transforming it into a greenhouse using acrylic paint pens. Then, using air-dry silk clay, model some flowers, plants or vegetables to go inside.
2.00pm
We will be making joyful collages of Spring flowers in a vase in the style of French artist Henri Matisse. We will use oil pastels and watercolour. This could be a lovely present for Mother’s Day...
