About the event
Join illustrator Christiane Engel for a fun drawing and collage workshop inspired by Cities Going Wild.
Children are invited to help transform a cityscape by adding animals, plants and imaginative green spaces, exploring how nature can thrive alongside people in urban environments.
This is a relaxed, drop-in session where participants can contribute to a large collaborative artwork and try out simple illustration techniques along the way.
Recommended for all ages!
