Demonstrate & Create
Saturday 13 July 2019 2 - 3.30pm
The Life Room, Royal Academy Schools
Free, no booking required.
Join us at the RA on the second Saturday of every month for an artist-led taster workshop, focusing on a specific artistic technique each session.
This month, Demonstrate & Create participants have a unique opportunity to visit the Royal Academy School’s Life Room. After learning about the history of the space, we'll take inspiration from drawings and sculptures found in the RA Collection, and create sculptural responses through two clay techniques: modelling and sgraffito.
In these monthly workshops, our artist will demonstrate an artistic technique relating to an object in the RA’s permanent Collection or to a specific historical architectural feature of the building. This will be followed by a short creative session, supported by volunteers, in which you can create your own work inspired by the technique.
To sign up, look out for our volunteers in the Burlington House front hall and the Wohl Entrance Hall, Burlington Gardens from 1pm. These sessions are free but spaces are limited.
This session will take place in the RA Schools Life Room.
