The Market Place is turning 25 and we are going to celebrate by combining the love for theatre and art into creating our own box theatre.

Taking inspiration from Picasso and his theatre pieces, we will be designing a stage and some players.

Working in layers of cardboard and paper, we are going to bring life to a blank shoebox with paint, decorations and imagination.

Take your theatre home and continue adding your ideas for a playful set filled with stories, creativity and play.

Photographer and visual artist Riona Kearns will guide participants in transferring their photographic images onto wood and fabric to create unique artworks. Riona will demonstrate how to revitalize old photos by adding colour through embroidery and painting techniques. 

Participants will also craft quirky frames using colourful wool and threads, resulting in transformed artworks in textile and wood by the end of the session.

All materials supplied. Participants are asked to email the tutor two images of choice two weeks prior to the workshop for sizing. Tutor’s email will be available upon booking.
