You’re invited to take part in a relaxing afternoon of creating artwork and playing music together with musician Tom Hawkins. First, you will produce a unique artwork using bright colours and bold shapes inspired by the architecture within Calverley Old Hall. You will then transform your artworks into pieces of music (or Graphic Scores) using both traditional acoustic instruments and found objects. No prior art or musical experience is required and all materials will be provided, however participants are encouraged to bring their own art materials and acoustic instruments if they wish to. In this sociable session, you will receive expert tuition from Tom on creating graphic scores, group music making, and will have a colourful piece of artwork to take home at the end of the session.
What to expect on the day
All equipment and materials and instrumets will be provided, however please feel free to bring your own art materials or acoustic instruments if you wish. Tea & coffee will be provided.
This workshop is for aged 16+. If you are 16/17 years old you must be accompanied by an paying responsible adult aged 18+.
