Placard-making workshop
Belfast
Event change: Unfortunately Elly Makem is no longer able to lead this workshop, but we’re very pleased that Bailie Burrell has stepped in. Bailie is an illustration student from Ulster University, based in Belfast and Banbridge. Bailie’s art practice focuses on bold, eye-catching artwork inspired by great pop artists such as Keith Haring and Roy Lichtenstein, exploring topics usually through a satirical comedic lens, such as politics, gender norms, sexuality, living in Belfast and day-to-day life.
Make your mark and have your voice heard in our placard-making workshop. If you’re marching for a cause, celebrating your identity, or want to get crafty, this session is for you. Join us for creative, hands-on work in a relaxed and supportive environment.
Participants of all ages and abilities are invited to design and create bold, beautiful placards using a range of provided materials.
No artistic experience is needed. All materials provided. Drop in or stay for the whole session.
Let’s raise our voices, and our placards, together!
