About

Based on a different theme each session, Art Jam with Art Harbour at Firstsite is a free opportunity to explore, experiment and develop your own art ideas.

With a focus on creative process rather than technical ability or finished results, Art Jam sessions centre on open-ended creative activity guided by a changing theme.

Each session introduces a broad range of materials and processes, allowing space for experimentation, exploration and individual interpretation.

Your session leaders would provide different art activities designed to encourage you to test ideas, respond intuitively and develop personal approaches without fixed outcomes or formal rules.

Making, thinking and responding through materials is treated as the core of the activity, emphasising self-expression and discovery. This workshop is suitable for all ages!

Art Jam with Art Harbour is held as part of Firstsite Fabulous Fridays: Immerse yourself in a world of unlimited creativity at our monthly Fabulous Fridays with unique workshops, art, tasty treats and great films!
