You will be working with artist Jill Phillips to design and draw your special ‘happy pocket’ to take home. Jill has discovered that we can feel different emotions when we see pockets with different shapes, so she has displayed a variety of pockets in the gallery. You will be able to look at them and choose elements from each to design one that makes you happy.
The workshop is for children and their parents/carers who will be asked to remain with them. They would be very welcome to design their own ‘happy pocket’ too.
This event accompanies the exhibition ‘Connected Emotions’, supported by the National Lottery through the Arts Council of Northern Ireland (principal funder), and part of the Linen Biennale funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
