Arts and Cultural Workshops

Unleash your creativity and get your hands dirty at the Hawkesbury City Council Arts & Culture tent!

Get inspired by local produce and create your own fruity tote bag using simple printmaking techniques. You can print your design onto a $5 tote bag purchased on the day.

If you prefer something clean and crafty, you can spend some time creating your own paper cake sculpture and colouring in a special Savour the Flavour artwork.

These drop-in activities are suitable for all ages and abilities.

Fruit Tote Bag PrintingA drop-in food inspired printmaking activity for all ages. Using pre-made Lino stamps, visitors can print a unique fruity design onto paper or a tote bag. There will be several stamps to choose from with different fruit illustrations. Visitors will use a printmaking roller to apply either pink, orange or yellow ink to their stamp, then print it onto their chosen surface using their hands. The activity can be completed in anywhere from 5-20 minutes
Paper Cake Sculpture

Using a printed template, visitors will colour in a layered cake design. Once completed they can cut out the template using scissors, fold and glue in place. The activity can be completed in anywhere from 5-10 minutes.

Colouring in SheetVisitors can use coloured pencils and textas to colour in a Savour the Flavour design or take a sheet to finish at home.
