WORKSHOPS

Workshops    Audrey Reece
Everything going as planned. We had not been successful in obtaining a grant to fund the circus this year, but the Mary Poppins group are involved in another joint application. The 6day circus workshop costs $15,000. It is a definite draw card making it possible for many families to attend because their kids are looked after.

Maryborough will again come alive in the winter of 2010 with the Art Festival Awards swinging at City Hall and Workshops at various locations….Learning and fun as well as competitions with excellent prizes, entertainment in the evenings and lots of camaraderie and the making  of  lasting friendships

DRAMA and DECEPTION
Discover the freedom, spontaneity and play of mask work!  A mask enables an actor to forget their normal persona and get lost inside someone else – be it the swaggering braggart Il Capitano, a mindless 'Shaun', or a snivelling old man. It permits you to be larger than life, grounds you in your body, and is a fantastic training experience that you can draw on, no matter what kind of actor you are or want to be.

Monika Bayer  will share her knowledge and experience in the art of modifying and creating new dimensions, for cards, illustrations and fun.

DIGITALLY ENHANCED PHOTOGRAPHY
Create and enhance photos and you will be amazed with the results you can achieve.

SPAGHETTI CIRCUS,
Hopefully will be back to keep the kids off the street and impart to  them  a wonderful learning experience as well as fun.  This workshop is reliant on funding to make it happen, Confirmation later.
