Artist's Workshop: Quick Draws and Looping GIFS

A relaxed two-part workshop where we’ll draw from the museum and the RSA200 Moving Image Programme in the Art Gallery, then turn our sketches into simple looping GIFs. Age 16+

Tuesday 11 August, 1:30 - 4pm

Session one is about looking closely, sketching, and building confidence through a gentle guided approach.

Wednesday 12 August, 1:30 - 4pm

Session two is about planning and making seamless loops, and we’ll end with a group screening of everyone’s finished GIFs. No prior experience needed. All tools and guidance are provided and it’s designed to be welcoming for beginners.
