Foodie Characters at ArtPlay

Be inspired by the different shapes, colours and elements of foods to imagine and create a watercolour painting of your own Foodie Character.

Ever stared at a banana, broccoli or a slice of bread and wondered what they were thinking? This is your chance to look at fruit, vegetables and all kinds of food from a new perspective…

Boisterous banana Bob loves singing, dancing and hanging out with friends. Brainy broccoli Barbara is a super-dooper scientist and bubbly bready Brianna is a Youtube star!

Artist Annick Akanni walks you through a brainstorming activity: What food will you pick and what character will you give them? Are they silly or serious? A villain or a hero? Or what do they simply like doing? After you have decided, learn watercolour painting techniques, then get straight into creating your very own Foodie Character to take home.

Adults are not required to stay.

Workshop also available for 5 to 8 year olds.
