What Animal Are You?

  • Family and kids
  • Workshop

If you were an animal (other than human), what animal would you be? Come along and explore this important question through sculpture and drawing with artist Sue Davis.

In collaboration with your parent / carer you will create a small (5cm tall) ‘bust’ (head and shoulders) with polymer clay which will be baked, for you to take home.

Age: 5 to 8 years

Please ensure your child is within this age range.
Children must be accompanied by an adult.
If you are bringing more than one child, it is recommend that extra adults attend.
