Make your Mark: Fabric Painting Tote Bag
In this immersive school holiday workshop with Cristina Giraldo, young artists transform fabric into living canvases through colour, movement, and play.
We’ll begin with fabric dyeing, exploring saturation, layering, and organic textures, then we’ll shift into expressive mark‑making with bold lines, rhythm, gesture, and emotional interpretation.
To finish, each child creates a personalised calico tote bag using fabric inks, building on the techniques they’ve learned. Art games and mini creative challenges keep the session playful and imaginative, and everyone leaves with a unique, functional artwork they’re proud to carry home.
