Mess is a part of childhood and life in general. So why not embrace it and channel it into a messy fun that serves a child’s learning development?
Messy play allows children to practice their natural curiosity and engage their senses to explore the world around them. They learn foundational cognitive principles as they exercise motor, language, and social skills.
Join us as kids will learn about colour mixing through observing, analysing, and identifying how colours change. Kids shall decide what colours to mix and use brushes or part of their body to paint on a large canvas.
This workshop will be led by Hind Al-Obaidli, a self-taught portrait artist. She is interested in studying the human figure and how it can transform in different environments. She was an artist-in-residence at the Fire Station in 2022-23.
Note: A family member should be present with their child during the workshop. They should bring a change of clothes, shoes, and towels/wipes in case needed.
This workshop is part of the public programme series in conjunction with The Present: The Future of the Past exhibition at the Fire Station: Artists in Residence.
