Ever wanted to learn how to face paint? Now's your chance!
In this fun, hands-on workshop, you'll learn some of the basic techniques professional face painters use, including how to load your brush & sponge, create simple shapes and lines, use colour effectively and add those little details that make a design pop. You'll then put your new skills into practice by learning 3 popular face painting designs: Flowers, Rainbow Fairy and Tiger!
Perfect for tweens and teens who love being creative and want to learn a skill they can use at school events, family parties, fundraising days and community events — or perhaps even explore as a future creative career.
All materials including professional grade face paints are provided during the workshop.
No previous face painting experience needed — just bring your creativity and be ready to get a little colourful! Just wear clothing that allows access to arms (some techniques will be practiced on the arms). Please be aware that face paint can stain clothing, dress accordingly.
