Home: Family Drawing Workshops

With Honey Williams

A person lies on the floor on a large piece of white paper. A group of people draw around them using a range of pens and pencils.

Draw, paint and collage at these fun family workshop sessions that explore what home and family means to you and your loved ones.

Bring the whole family along and express yourself at these creative workshops, led by sonic and visual artist Honey Williams. Inspired by themes found in the Noah Davis exhibition, participants will be encouraged to create a home or family portraits through a range of visual arts activities and styles.

Participants will be encouraged to share their work as part of a community exhibition called Home, open to the public from Apr 2025. 

Honey Williams is an artist and graphic designer whose work explores the themes of identity, culture and social justice. Celebrated for her impactful visual art and music, Williams' diverse practice includes painting, illustration, sound design, DJing and more.
