Art x Mindfulness x Social Impact
Come and celebrate Vincent van Gogh’s genius with us!

We will look at his early works, explore how his artistic practice developed over time, and investigate the aspects of his late artworks such as composition, brushwork, colours in an easy and comprehensive format.

You will learn the story of his world-famous “The Starry Night”, when and where it was made, and what inspired Vincent.

You will have a go at creating a simplified version of the painting. It will be a step-by-step process that will allow you to combine your own artistic knowledge and skills with van Gogh’s techniques.

You will come out with a better understanding of what made his work special and how to create more art inspired by van Gogh.

Tea & Snacks: Available for purchase
