About this Event
?Get ready to spray your way into space with AOP projects at our spray paint and stencil workshops at SPARK* York! You’ll learn how to use the wonderful medium of spray paint combined with space themed stencils in this jam-packed 45-minute workshop full of techniques that will allow you to create your very own intergalactic masterpiece!
?No experience is required, just lots of creativity and imagination! Our professional instructors will walk you through each step of the creative process, ensuring you’re having fun, being safe, and learning a new skill.
?Classes are designed for both kids and adults to enjoy and we guarantee that even our more experienced hands will find plenty to do as they create their unique work of art.
?We will cover basic information such as how a spray can actually works and how to get an even coat of paint onto your canvas. We’ll then go into the process of layering your piece, beginning with using a line breaker to ‘break the canvas’. We’ll then introduce a variety of stencils to create amazing shapes, patterns and textures. For our more advanced participants, we’ll demonstrate and help with drop shadowing, and if needed, we’ll support you with ideas, colour choices, principles of design, and anything else needed to make sure you’re the best artist in the galaxy!
?We’ve added loads of out of this world stencils and colours, allowing your creativity to go to infinite possibilities!
The Boring Bits…
Full PPE will be provided including gloves, gown, mask and goggles, as well as a safety brief.
Parents are welcome to accompany their kids without purchasing a ticket (they will not have their own canvas set up to paint) but are also encouraged to purchase a ticket and participate in the workshop alongside their child!
All participants must be aged 7 or older to sign up for this workshop. Although younger children are often good at following instructions, this is a strict policy due to the fact that small fingers typically struggle when operating spray cans, compromising user safety.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask questions, and we’ll make sure we find the right class for you! [email protected]
