Join us this NAIDOC Week, for an Artist Run Ceramics Workshop.
The afternoon will begin with an artist talk from the celebrated Ngarrindjeri artist Tiarnie Edwards in our Collingwood Gallery. Following this, Tiarnie will guide you through decorating two of your own ceramic plates. After the workshop, we welcome you to join us for refreshments in the Collingwood Yards courtyard. Food is generously catered by the delicious Stefanino Panino e Vino, and drinks from sponsors Stomping Ground Brewing and Bird in Hand Winery.
This event will give participants the unique opportunity to engage in conversation and learn ceramic techniques from a renowned First Nations artist, and give space to meet new creatives in the lively setting of Collingwood Yards.
Please note, ceramic plates will be collected from the gallery at a later date, once they have been fired.
