Creative Fuse NE at Durham University

Join us for a fab creative afternoon learning a new craft and help local creative practitioners test new workshop ideas.

Durham Town Hall

Join us at Durham Town Hall for a fantastic afternoon having a go and see if you can pick up some new creative skills. Cake and refreshments will be served.We are proud to highlight 9 talented, creative practitioners from across the County who've been part of Creative Fuse NE's 'Teach Your Art' programme, which took place as part of the Summer in the City Festival. These are experienced professionals who have been developing new arts and crafts workshops; now we need YOU to help them test them out! Once you arrive at the event, we'll check you in and then assign you to one of the workshops, which will last about 2 hours long. We will also have other fun activities you can get involved with (such as sand art, a creative Lego table, and a creative word-thought wall), and you're welcome to browse and observe the work of all of the artists with us on the day. There's no charge for this event. In addition to running workshops, our creatives will have items for sale. It's going to be experimental, fun, and extremely creative! Creative workshops will include:<ul><li>Stencil poetry writing</li><li>Screen printing</li><li>Japanese collage (chigiri-e)</li><li>Copper wire wrapping</li><li>Applique sewing (upcycling)</li><li>Leatherworking</li><li>Painting</li><li>Embroidery</li></ul>**TICKETS** As of October 14, we have two types of tickets available:<ul><li>Creative Workshops : Register for a Creative Workshops ticket and in addition to having general admission to the event--where you can enjoy our creative activity tables, and have a browse of our artists' work--we'll also assign you to one of the creative workshops happening on the day!
