Pallant Gallery workshop
Artist
Louise Bristow will encourage families to use the
fabric of the new and old buildings at Pallant House Gallery as inspiration to create imaginative 3D architectural constructions
out of cardboard and collage. Participants can work individually, or in family groups if they wish. As well as investigating the
architecture of Pallant House Gallery itself, families can also take ideas from works in the Gallery's collection which show
buildings and architecture, looking at paintings such as 'John Piper's Redland Park Congregational Church, Bristol' and
photographs and drawings on display in the temporary exhibition 'Colin St John Wilson: Collector and Architect'.
