About
Taking inspiration from Edwin Austin Abbey’s huge study for the celestial scene of ‘The Hours’, alongside other works in our collection, play with different materials to create your own unique celestial collage.
Developed by artist Alex Bowie, this drop-in creative session encourages you to explore shape, line, colour and pattern in a supportive and seasonal environment.
Our Room 1 exhibition ‘Edwin Austin Abbey: By the Dawn’s Early Light’ is free to all visitors until 9 pm.
Materials are generously provided by Stabilo.
