Mucky House Workshop

The Domestic Craft and Contemporary Art Group based at Artstation invites anyone interested to make works for the March 2010 exhibition 'House to House'.

You can contribute by coming along to this Mucky House workshop, which will give participants the chance to make houses out of messy materials you no longer want in your house. Some clay, wax, plaster and fabric strips will be available, but please bring along any recycled materials and plenty of ideas. This is an untutored workshop but there will be help to get you started.
