Trash to Treasure Workshop: Steampunk Fish
Saturday 28 February from 10am to 1pm Saturday 30 May from 10am to 1pm Saturday 15 August from 10am to 1pm Saturday 31 October from 10am to 1pm
Dive into the imaginative world of steampunk and sustainable art in this hands-on workshop where junk comes to life! Using recycled materials, discarded gadgets, scrap plastics, and all manner of odds and ends, you'll create your very own mechanical fish with a fantastical twist.
Guided by a local artist, participants will learn basic techniques in sculpture, assemblage, and creative reuse. Whether you're crafting a sleek mechanical trout with copper fins or a deep-sea angler with glowing eyes and gear-powered gills, your creation will be a one-of-a-kind fusion of industrial charm and aquatic inspiration.
Perfect for makers, tinkerers, and anyone who loves steampunk, sustainability, or just getting a little messy in the name of creativity.
No prior experience needed. Just a sense of adventure (and maybe a love for fish with goggles).
This workshop is facilitated by local artist Emma, a self-taught mixed media artist with a love of creating and waste reduction.
