Create a Collaged Poster Inspired by the Mills Archive
Join Jelly’s artists for a vibrant, hands-on workshop combining neon-bright papers, bold silhouettes, and hand-carved stamp prints.
We’ll start by exploring items from the Mills Archive Trust’s collection, taking inspiration from its historical architecture, shapes, and textures.
Guided by our artists, you’ll experiment with collaged patterns, layered colours, and block-print techniques to design your own one-of-a-kind poster
Perfect for adults and children of ages. Younger children (under 6 years) will need help from an adult to take part in this workshop.
We will be located in the Garden Hall within the garden's of Watlington House.
