Slade Summer School Taster Workshop
Join us for the Slade Summer School Taster Workshop on 6 June 2019! This fun workshop will be a chance to get a feel of what we offer on our Slade summer courses by experimenting with collage.
The drop in workshop is open to everyone; the creative and non-creative, collage is something that everyone can get stuck into! We will be referencing the Slade’s rich history of famous collage artist alumni, such as Richard Hamilton and John Stezaker, who are well known for working with collaged portraiture. All ages welcome!
The Slade School of Fine Art is a world-renowned art school solely dedicated to research and practice of fine art. In its 34th year, the Slade Summer School has established a wide range of short courses over the ten week summer period. Courses of all levels range from three days to three weeks with a ten-week Fine Art foundation course.
