  • Stop and Look - Capturing Seasonal Changes through Arts and Crafts
    Seasonal Courses
    Delivered either online or in venue

    Online or in Venue
    Online or in Venue
    This Course is designed for face to face community delivery. You will require basic level (level 2) maths and English skills, the ability to read and follow instructions and participate in group discussions.

    This course is for beginners and no prior experience in the subject field is necessary.

    Course Overview:
    This workshop focuses on visual recording of the senses associated with the current season.

    You will consider how to record colour, texture, line and even how to visually represent the sounds and smells of the season, as you take the time to slow down and notice the world around you.

    You will create a mood board of ideas and visual references that reflect the season.

    You will take the time to think about how the activities have encouraged you to stay grounded in the here and now and how this has affected your wellbeing.

    You will be facilitated in reflecting on and evaluating outcomes using subject specific terminology and analytical skills.

    You will be asked to discuss your individual interests, aspirations and experience within the subject and take part in a range of simple exercises and discussions in order to negotiate individual learning goals. This programme is designed with beginners in mind although some learners may have some previous informal learning experience within the overall curriculum area.

    You will be learning over one weekly session at 2.5 hours, inclusive of tidying away your own materials.
