The Curiosity Club - drop-in days
9 & 23 July, 12-4pm
Self-directed creative play in Void’s Education space!
Tap into your imagination, experiment with materials, and create freely as a family or small group during Void’s Curiosity Club sessions this Summer!
Inspired by Void’s current exhibition, Above Us the Milky Way, our summer Curiosity Club activities include mask making, collaged landscapes, drawing booklets, hanging paper plate twirlers, and explorative painting. The Curiosity Club will be filled with various different materials, activity prompts and mediums for your little ones to self-direct around, experiment with, and unleash their inner artist.
No need for booking, just pop along to Void.
Please note: these sessions are self-directed so adults must attend with the children.
Summer Art Bootcamp - Inside Out
Limited to 10 spaces, age 7-12 year olds - £10 per child
19 - 22 July, 10- 12.30pm
Location: TBC - see website for details
Void is delighted to hold an in-person boot camp for children once again. The first art boot camp was held in 2019 and was an overwhelming success. Paused for the last two years because of Covid, we are excited to welcome children back this year for a range of creative activities inspired by Alan Phelan’s sculpture The RGBhyacinth currently installed in Brooke Park. Participants will have the opportunity to explore their wildest imaginations as they come up with and create their own crazy house plant paper mache sculptures.
Family drop-in day with artist Zoe McSparron
20 August, 12 - 4pm
The family drop-in day is coming over all Pride to celebrate the Foyle Pride festival on the 28th of August! Join artist Zoe McSparron in Pride-inspired activities and create something special to bring along to Foyle Pride!
