Join artist Asha Murray for a 5 day summer camp at the RHA. The camp, inspired by Asha’s creative practice, will explore art making through the medium of tufting and sculpture. Wool tufting is made by tufting wool through canvas either with a punch needle or tufting gun, resulting in a carpeted textile artform. This camp will focus on the punch needle technique with an opportunity to also make a collaborative sculpture during the week.
Each day will be divided into morning and afternoon sessions with a break for a packed lunch.
Numbers are limited so please book your place early, to avoid disappointment.
All materials will be provided and the week will end with an exhibition for family and friends to come along and celebrate each participant’s creativity!
