SUNROOM is about providing a safe creative space for art making creative play and exploration for adults who identify with disability. 

We believe in the social model of disability - that is, disability is the result of the interaction between people living with impairments and an environment filled with physical, attitudinal, communication and social barriers. (Sourced from PWD)

No prior art making experience is necessary, only a willingness to engage your imagination, curiosity and sense of play.

July Sunroom – Book Collage Portraits

In this workshop, we’ll explore collage techniques and portraiture principles to build an expressive, layered portrait made from recycled books. You may like to create a self-portrait or a portrait of a loved one or literary hero. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced artist, this workshop offers the opportunity to experiment with composition, storytelling and mixed media.

This program is inspired by Writers Revealed: Treasures from The British Library and the National Portrait Gallery, London, now showing at HOTA Gallery.

Recommended ages 16+
