At Vuosaari House in Helsinki: Luova hetki – A creative moment – Open art workshop

We make a colourful fabric collage by using recycled fabrics. We build the collage from canvas bags, using an iron to glue the fabrics together. Children under the age of 8 may only participate if accompanied by an adult. If you want to, you can continue decorating the bag with embroidery.

Wednesday 23 September at 16.00–18.00 | Press print graphics

We try out a simple and fun relief printing technique. We use a pen to carve a design into the press print sheet, apply paint with a roller and then use our palms to create the print.

Wednesday 21 October at 16.00–18.00 | Autumn leaves in a mirror

We sketch tree leaves in pencil. We use a mirror to study symmetry in nature.

Wednesday 25 November at 16.00–18.00 | Stars of many kinds
