Explore, play and create together with your family this summer holiday at our Summer Studio. Have a go at hands-on creative activities with local artists inspired by three artists from the UK and India in residence in the gallery this August. Try out new art forms with a different activity every week: explore pattern through henna design, weave and wind with textiles and combine drawing and storytelling to create your own unique artworks.
