About the event
Clay Monster: Queer Ta(i/e)ls (tails/tales) A free workshop for the LGBTQIA+ community led by artist, Frankie Fisk "Play* ( *engage in activity for enjoyment rather than practical purpose ). Because our world needs, softer, wilder futures. Because monsters have birthdays too." ~ Workshop facilitator Frankie Fisk Clay Monster: Queer Ta(i/e)ls (tails/tales) is a playful, hands-in-the- 'mud' workshop where we’ll each sculpt a clay ‘monster’ and co-create a queer narrative. Blending clay play with child like storytelling methods, the session invites collective myth-making, and the imagining of otherwise worlds. We’ll draw on monster theory and queer ways of imagining to celebrate difference, mess, and things that don’t quite fit.
Our monsters will then come together in the middle of our circle and be read the story we have written.
After the workshop, your monsters will be fired and glazed — ready to take home as tender companions.
No experience needed — just a willingness…
