Cast & Create

Sunday, 22 February
1:00 to 4:00 p.m.
$30/person | Ages 6-13
Artist Instructor: Ike Karuna

Participants will experiment with form and texture as they make, fill, and unveil their very own unique moulds, turning simple objects into sculptural treasures. Through guided instruction and playful experimentation, they’ll discover how everyday materials can transform into imaginative works of art. Along the way, they’ll discover how casting can be used to capture memories, textures, and time… revealing the hidden stories within ordinary objects! Don't forget to explore the exhibition that inspired this workshopJenine Marsh: HARBINGER.
