The ART of Tarot: Design your own tarot card
A short presentation on the art and artists behind tarot, view some decks, and design your own tarot postcard
Join artist Sally Anderson for a deep dive into the art and artists behind the tarot. We'll gather in Station East's historic arches, a quirky space incorporating beautiful natural stonework that had previously been hidden for many years. Local ales by Hadrian Border Brewery available all evening.
Starting with a short presentation to introduce you to some of the key artists behind the tarot, the symbolism and historical context, we'll move on to viewing some tarot card decks, then create our own tarot postcard drawing inspiration from the cards that appeal to you the most.
Suitable for all levels of artist. Support and step by step processes are available for beginners, or more experienced artists are welcome to explore their own styles. Pencils, coloured pencils, and black fineliner drawing pens provided, or you're welcome to bring your own (dry, non toxic) art materials with you.
*** Please note this is not a workshop on tarot reading ***
Please respect different beliefs and approaches to tarot
