FAMILY ART FUN DAY: Make a Mould & Plaster Cast Your Own Mask!

SATURDAY 12 NOVEMBER 12-2PM

AT TURF GALLERY, KEELEY ROAD, CROYDON

£FREE

 

MAKE A MOULD & PLASTER CAST YOUR OWN MASK!

This workshop is a chance for families to work with artists to try out the exciting process of plaster casting, and have a look around Turf’s current exhibition ‘Trojan Home’.

Families are invited to design and create a mould using clay, which we’ll fill with runny plaster. Whilst your plaster hardens, you can explore the current exhibition with our free Family Activity Guide and make a 3D speech bubble for your mask. We’ll then peel back your clay mould to reveal a hard plaster model of your mask for you to take home!

This workshop is completely free to attend and all materials are provided. Most suitable for ages 5+ but all are welcome to come and have a go.

WORKSHOP CODE:

Turf aims to be a space where all are welcomed & respected. We ask all attendees to align with this spirit when booking and support us in creating a welcoming & collaborative atmosphere together. We ask that everyone is;

  • Kind and respectful in our language and behaviour towards others. Turf is a space which is anti racism, sexism, homophobia and ableism.
  • Considerate of others’ time; allowing others room to speak & engage.
  • Respectful of the space itself as belonging to many people, treating the space & objects with care.
  • Attend wherever possible: In 2023, around 30% of people booking free tickets didn’t turn up! Our free tickets are limited and in high demand. Every person who doesn’t turn up means someone else can’t attend, so please let us know if you can’t make it to free up a space. If you don’t attend twice or more without letting us know, you may be restricted from booking again.
