Drop by our Education Studio from 11am-3pm to see the responses to our exhibition Women Impressionists which visitors created during our Summer Studio sessions.
Co-ordinated by artist Sarah Ward and supported by Gallery facilitators Sarah Edmondson, Aoife Convery and Jessica Sharkey, as well as assistant Sophie McCormack, these sessions exploreed the theme of Untold Stories. The Open Studio addressed underrepresented and lesser known artists in the collection, while also drawing connections with the Women Impressionists exhibition.
Considering Women Impressionists from their unique perspectives and practices, the artists created a dynamic environment encouraging visitors to engage, experiment and make. The artists utilised recycled and environmentally sourced materials where possible.
