Saturday Studio Workshop with The Work Room led by dance artists Alex McCabe & Stefanie Schwimmbeck, July 2022.
Join us on 29 March for our next Saturday Studios, celebrating the vibrant spirit of spring through creativity, connection, and reflection!
Led by interdisciplinary artist and former resident Andrea Ling, whose practice explores rekindling rituals and bringing communities together, we’ll delve into how seasonal traditions can offer care, connection, and meaning in modern life.
Activities will include:
- Making Herb Bundles: Gather and tie herbs to reflect on the renewal of spring, setting personal intentions for the season ahead.
- Movement Improvisation: Engage in playful and expressive movement inspired by spring’s energy.
- Creating Spring Rituals: Collaborate to design simple yet meaningful springtime rituals. Using song, storytelling, and symbolic gestures, we’ll perform our rituals outdoors, culminating in a shared moment around a fire.
Practical Details:
- Please dress warmly and bring outdoor-appropriate clothing for the fire ritual.
- Please wear comfortable clothing to move in indoors.
- No prior experience is necessary—just an open heart and a willingness to participate.
This workshop is for children aged 5-16 to attend with their parents or carers. Children over 8 years old may attend without an accompanying adult. Please book a ticket for each person attending. If you have questions about workshop accessibility, please get in touch with Emma Henderson (Curator of Engagement).
