What would you say if you knew the world would listen?
In this LGBTQ+ workshop, we will answer that question through creating placards to be displayed at Ferens Art Gallery.
This intergenerational workshop is a chance to work with our current artist in residence Maddie Morris.
Maddie is the Ferens Artist in Residence whose work will be featured in our exhibition opening in January 2025 entitled Sirens: Women and the Sea. Maddie will be responding to Herbert James Draper’s painting Ulysses and the Sirens (c1909) which is on display in Gallery 4.
Maddie is a Folk singer and songwriter from Leeds who takes traditional songwriting and shines a light on contemporary issues about the world we live in. Their songs highlight inequality, challenge viewpoints, and provides an inclusive space for shared experiences.
Free, Drop in. Materials will be provided.
Held in the new Create Gallery upstairs in the Ferens Art Gallery, 2pm - 4pm.
