Jaywick Martello Tower: INSTAR ARKADE Arkspace Workshops
Join INSTAR for these creative workshops which takes inspiration from natural, as well as human-made, structures.
In this workshop INSTAR will explore ideas of survival, resilience and protection, creating a collection of visual shadow/silhouette-based artworks.
Using patterns and shapes inspired by natural forms, each artwork will be illuminated to create a large collective arkwork, symbolic of community strength and protection.
These workshops are FREE and art materials are provided. Workshops take place from 11.00am - 1.00pm and 3.00pm-5.00pm.
All ages and interests welcome.
Supported by the Essex County Council Arts and Cultural Fund.
