Wednesday Workshop: Collage with Minna Gilligan
First we'll plow through old books and magazines, looking for images that jump out or speak to you in some way. These images will then begin to form ideas for your visual theme. We'll then combine them with paint colours and texture to create a background, mood or setting. O' what a night!
Wednesday Workshop: Paper Sewing with Kylie Stillman
Yep we're talking an artist-led workshop with yummy snacks and a cheeky glass of wine. It doesn't get any better than this!
Kylie Stillman uses scalpel blades, jigsaws, sewing materials and drills to alter objects and create negative spaces that depict ‘signs of life’. Birds, plant life and the artist’s own scribbles are frequently used as subject matter. Her inventive artworks draw from both modern art and craft traditions to transform ordinary materials into works of art.
The Nutcracker
Join Clara at her Christmas party, as she ventures into her Nutcracker prince's magical land. Prepare to be dazzled by the famous sugar plum fairy pas de deux, breathtaking snow scenes, a beautiful Christmas tree and a stack of (secret) party surprises.
The Nutcracker is a feast of outstanding classical ballet skill that continues to bring joy to little and big kids alike. With a breathtaking musical score by Tchaikovsky and enchanting classical ballet performed by the stars of the Victorian State Ballet this is a festive tradition not to be missed!
