Sun Catcher Sculpture Workshop – Bursaries Available

12 September 2011 By NMB Communications

It’s time to bring some colourful sunshine into your room! This holiday, children from 8 to 13 years old are invited to the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Art Museum to create their own sun catcher. A sun catcher is a decorative piece of artwork that is hung near a window so that it “catches” incoming sun rays, dispersing the light and energizing an area with various moving colours and light shapes.

The workshop will start with a tour of the exhibitions on show, which will give children the spark they need to bolster their creative side. They will then proceed onto making a unique sun catcher that they will be proud to display!

The workshop will take place on 5 October and again on 6 and 7 October from 09:00 to 12:00. The cost is R15 and all materials will be provided including light refreshment. If they wish, children may bring any special objects or trinkets to attach to their sun catcher such as shells, gemstones, beads etc.

Fifteen children can be accommodated per workshop so telephone the Art Museum on 041 506 2000 to make a booking for a morning of fun! Bursaries are available, on request, for suitable applicants.

Editors Notes: You must be kidding me? A R15.00 bursary! It will cost ten times that just to administer it. WTFN!
