SUMMARY:Wellbeing and Clay Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Reflecting the themes of Sandra Gordon’s exhibition The Body Remembers\, participants will be guided through a mindful\, hands-on experience using air-drying clay\, inspired by ideas of resilience\, healing\, memory\, and connection. Working with clay offers a calming and creative space to slow down so that participants can reflect and express themselves through making. \nParticipants will create their own small piece to take home\, with the emphasis on enjoying the creative process and experiencing the wellbeing benefits of working with clay\, rather than producing a perfect finished piece. \nThis workshop will be relaxed\, welcoming\, and suitable for adults of all abilities\, and no previous experience is required.
