Join artist Storm in this collaborative painting workshop where we will explore ideas around creative storytelling, landscapes & environments. In this workshop we will be making use of objects that hold importance to us, so we encourage you to bring one or two items for this session. It can be anything that holds value in your life, no matter how big or small. (eg. picture of your cat or headphones, anything really) The idea is to create something centred around it as part of a collective piece.
Access:
Bluecoat is wheelchair accessible.
We also offer travel refunds, ask a member of staff on the day.
This event is a part of Queer Youth Art Collectives touring exhibition ERRATICA, The Struggle, the celebration
Since September 2019, Queer Youth Art Collective (QYAC) has run free art workshops exclusively for LGBT young people 18-26. We believe arts education should be free and see its liberating power to bring people together every day. Young LGBT artists must be better connected to one another, demand fair wages and the free exchange of ideas across cities and borders.
The white cube, the art school and the studio space. Queer Youth Art Collective respond with their own, sometimes complicated, relations to art institutions as makers, explorers and lovers of art. Join for a touring exhibition with creative workshops run by young artists.
In partnership with Arts Council England, The Bluecoat, Curious Arts, Glasgow Zine Library, GYRO, Homotopia, Outside Project LGBTIQ+ Centre, and Studio Voltaire
