My Neighbourhood: Recycle, Reuse, Represent 

Date and Time: Sunday, March 30 - 10.00-1pm 

Location: The Guide Hall, Pingrup Lane Doubleview, WA 6018 

Free Venue Parking 


What to expect 

Participants will use second-hand material to create a 3D collage that represents their lives and where they live.

What symbolises neighbourhood and community for them? For example, they may choose to represent visiting the beach or park. They could depict local wildlife or vegetation, or they could represent the built environment e.g., their local shops or restaurants. The workshop is run in connection with a competition and exhibition to follow.

A local artist (Annie Rawle) will lead the workshop and show you how to combine your pictures and models with found objects and images. She will teach craft techniques focused on using recycled materials, for example, wire, wood, paper, cardboard glue, thread paints etc. You’ll get worksheets and ideas of what to create to fit the theme. This fun and friendly workshop will be very hands-on and all participants will have an opportunity to create their own art piece on the day.

After the workshop, you will take home your work to finish at home if needed, then deliver it in its frame for exhibition and judging (if you choose to enter the competition). The artwork must be contained within a single box-style frame (provided with ticket payment). All other materials will be provided on the day. The workshop is run in connection with a competition and exhibition with details to follow soon. All materials on the day of the workshop will be free ( including a box frame) but you may need some basic things at home to finish, for example, paint, glue etc.

The attendees can choose whether to enter their art into the subsequent art competition.
