Workshop - The Farmer's Wife and Her Fancy Hats

Join author, illustrator and designer Kai D'Orsa for a delightful workshop inspired by his picture book The Farmer's Wife and Her Fancy Hats. Combining storytelling, drawing and imaginative design, this hands-on experience invites children to explore the joy of creative expression through words and pictures. Following an interactive reading of the story, participants will discover illustration and character-design techniques before creating their own fanciful hat designs. Inspired by the imaginative spirit and playful observation found in the work of Eric Thake, young artists will be encouraged to see the extraordinary in the ordinary and transform everyday ideas into inventive creations. Session 1: 10.00-11.00am | ages 5-8 Session 2: 1.30 to 3.00pm | ages 9-12 Suitable for primary school-aged children. No prior drawing experience required. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
