This workshop asks participants to express personal stories, treasured memories, aspirations, and reflections on gratitude through the creation of banderitas. A banderita is a small colourful flag. When strung together they create a banner and are part of many festivals in the Philippines. Each individual banderita will serve as its own art object and will also be strung together to create a collaborative community banner to be displayed in the Learning Centre with the artist’s work.
During the workshop, participants will learn a range of exciting, practical techniques, such as painting and printmaking, suitable for all skill levels.
Age range: All are welcome. Children 12 and under need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Parents and guardians are exempt from the registration fee
