About this Event
Self-portraits can be a powerful way to express ourselves and help us navigate our identity as queer people. In this workshop, run by local art tutor Morna Murdoch, we will explore a mixed media approach to self-portraiture, queer visibility and self-acceptance.
Being creative boosts our mental wellbeing by helping us reduce stress, process emotions and express ourselves.
No experience needed to attend, all welcome. All materials will be provided, but you’re welcome to bring your own materials if you’d prefer.
