SUMMARY:Moonlit Tigers with Emma Prill
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: The Creative Community Campus\nIn this workshop\, children will use acrylic paint and Posca pens on canvas to create a magical moonlit jungle scene\, featuring tigers illuminated by the glow of the moon. We will explore colour\, pattern\, mixing paints\, and the atmosphere of the night-time jungle. \nPlease bring morning tea and a drink bottle\, and wear old clothes — we get messy! \nEmma Prill is a painter and art educator who holds a Bachelor of Visual Arts.

Emma’s passion for creativity extends far beyond her own studio practice. She is a beloved children’s art tutor\, hosting regular\, sold-out workshops which are calm meditative spaces\, full or creativity. Emma guides kids through experimental processes\, helping them build brilliant compositions that tell imaginative stories. Using a range of materials\, she empowers her young students to explore mark-making and abstract forms\, ensuring every child walks away with a colourful masterpiece of their own. \nIMPORTANT: This workshop has been thoughtfully curated by the tutor to nurture their creativity\, so we recommend you leave your child(ren) to enjoy it on their own and with their peers. Both the Campus and the Village have lost of spaces for you to chill and wait until the workshop is finished. \nFind out more
