Mask Making Workshop
8 February 2024
Designed for families, this workshop from 11am-1pm on 8 February 2024 will discuss the idea of masks and expressing identity – who you are and what you show to the world. Inspired by the work of Ashanti Harris, and led by Sarah Wakeford, the session will explore some accessible mask making activities with easy-to-use materials and techniques.
Sarah Wakeford’s workshops form part of our programme connected with Fife Contemporary’s Crafted Selves exhibition on at St Andrews Museum until February 24th 2024.
Anyone with any skill level can book to attend this workshop. If booking for family groups please include all children in the booking. All materials are provided.
We have collaborated with St Andrews Museum to develop this exciting group of workshops and activities at St Andrews Museum until the exhibition Crafted Selves ends in St Andrews in preparation for its move to Kirkcaldy in March.
Crafted Selves: The Unfinished Conversation takes its title from a continuing discourse between curator Cat Dunn and the 13 Scotland based artists featured. Working in sculpture, painting, ceramics, textiles, installation, moving image films and creative writing responses, the artists all in some way carry a Dual-Identity. Many have a sense of their own self born from having a cultural heritage which is both Scottish and one which is rooted in another cultural home. The exhibition also explores other dualisms and expressions of identity, including artists who express their sexuality, disability, or trans and non-binary selves through their work.
