3-Day Half-Term Workshop

For young women and girls (16+)  interested in exhibition making

“A well-chosen frame can determine what’s relevant, important, or good.” Zoe Chance

In this three-day free workshop, you’ll transform discarded frames into bold, expressive works of art and step into the role of curator.

Using techniques like crackle glaze, layering, distressing and embellishment, you’ll create a frame that doesn’t just hold an image, but shapes how it is seen.

Your finished piece will become part of our summer exhibition and will be displayed with your name and curatorial credit.

What you’ll do

  • Upcycle and transform a reclaimed frame
  • Learn decorative techniques including crackle glaze and layering
  • Explore how framing changes meaning in photography
  • Design with a specific image or idea in mind
  • Exhibit your work in our summer exhibition

What you’ll discover

  • Creative upcycling and sustainable making
  • Visual storytelling and presentation
  • Introduction to curatorial thinking
  • Confidence in making and exhibiting work
