ABOUT THIS PROGRAMME:

Childhood Memories: An Art course inspired by the I Grew up in the 90s Exhibition

The 90s was when the first Toy Story movie was screened, Sonic the Hedgehog and Street Art was growing in popularity!  During this course we will explore how Typography has evolved over time and explore creating out own designs and experiment with creating some ‘Graffiti’.  There will be opportunities to develop your drawing skills and spend time with fellow Home Educators.

There will also be time to connect and socialise with other home educating families in a relaxed and inspiring museum setting.

Led by art educator Veronica Williams.
