Culture Night: Art Workshop!

Culture Night: Art Workshop! Friday 20th September, 5-6pm Workshops suitable for children aged 6-10 years Admission free but booking is essentialCalling all children! Join us this Culture Night for a workshop led by artist Laura Ní Fhlaibhín on her exhibition Edge of Range at Wexford Arts Centre. Laura will introduce children to large-scale drawing on compostable materials. The exhibition will be the starting point for creative, process-led activities such as glow in the dark mark-making experiments, seed germination, and botanical drawing.  Edge of Range focuses on the cotton weed plant which is a distinctive species recognized by its dense covering of white, cottony hairs and yellow flower heads.  At present, the cotton weed plant is in a perilous state all across Europe.  The exhibition traces the story of this near extinction through a sculptural installation and wall-based works.
