Mike Carney Creative Industries Centre – Charters Towers

Join artist Lisa Ashcroft in a hands-on workshop where you’ll explore the art of creating sculptures that offer a playful twist on serious topics.

This workshop encourages you to transform everyday discarded and broken objects into imaginative works of art. You’ll learn to see beauty in the unexpected, bringing attention to how our everyday objects tell stories—often deeper than they appear. Lisa wants you to experiment and be playful with the materials to create something unique to you with new construction methods. Having fun is the key, whilst learning new ways of working and throwing away the rule book!
