BELCONNEN Arts Centre welcomes back some regular tutors and some new tutors to offer a wide range of holiday arts activities this week young artists aged 5 to 12 years.
Activities include spring crafts, weaving, puppetry and print making with artists Leigh Walker, Vikky Parsley, Marianne Mettes and Jo Hollier.
They’ll need an accompanying adult for under 7’s and participants are advised to wear old clothes in preparation for some serious splattering, staff at the centre say.
