Children’s festive cards, tree and clay decorations tutorials

There will be three online workshops promoting arts and crafts and children will be shown a range of skills and techniques.

Each video will be shown every Saturday at 11am throughout December.

The Void will stream these Christmas workshops on their website, Facebook and Instagram IGTV.

Three different art facilitators will conduct the lessons each week. On Saturday, December 5 Karen Cassidy will show children how to design and paint their own watercolour Christmas cards.

The following Saturday Sinead Crumlish will teach the art of homemade air drying clay. This technique uses simple household ingredients to make your own clay that can then be made into Christmas decorations or Christmas bunting.

The final workshop takes place on Saturday December 19 with Zoe McSparron. Using materials at home, children will be taught how to make a swirling paper plate Christmas tree.
