3-D High-Street Collage Wed 30 October | 3.30pm - 5.00pm
This is a fun, hands on workshop to build a 3-D high street using cardboard boxes. Attendees will choose what they want on this idealised Palmers Green high street and decorate/ collage/ paint their boxes as they wish in a imaginative session. Harriette would like to use these boxes as part of her residency exhibition and can return them when the exhibition closes in December.
Suitable for all ages. Children must be accompanied by an adult. All materials will be provided. Wear old clothes as gluing and painting will be involved!

Explore the Surfaces of Palmers Green Fri 1 November | 2pm - 3.30pm
Workshop to explore the 2-D surfaces of Palmers Green using frottage on paper. A participatory workshop, where your hands will definitely get dirty. Some of this workshop will be outside in the local area and may be weather dependant. Harriette would like to use the material created in this workshop as part of her residency exhibition and can return it when the exhibition closes in December.
Suitable for all ages. Children must be accompanied by an adult. All materials will be provided. Wear old clothes as this could get messy as graphite and charcoal will be used and for those that can, some kneeling down outside may be required.
Deep Listening and Drawing Sound Sat 9 November 11am - 12.30pm
Workshop to explore how to listen deeply and record these sounds visually and on the phone. As a group we will create a visual ‘collage’ of the sounds of Palmers Green. Some of this workshop will be outside in the local area. Suitable for all, but deep listening exercises will involve quietness which very young children might find difficult. Any children must be accompanied by an adult. All drawing materials will be provided. Wear clothes suitable for the weather as part of this workshop is outside. Bring your phone and if you have any other portable recording equipment/ microphones, bring that too to capture local sounds.
