Origami Florals

Get absorbed in our origami workshop; come drop-in for a relaxed origami session based on flowers, if you fancy the challenge you can even create your very own mini Kusudama's (flower ball). Working with artist Ricky Chen, whose installation Plane of Planetary features within our exhibition, you can learn how to fold and assemble paper to create stunning floral forms.

FREE ENTRY, no booking required, family-friendly. 

ACCESS: The School of Art building is an accessible space, with ramp access to the front of the building and lift access throughout. Due to the age of the building the building has uneven floors which can feel slightly odd to walk upon in places but they do not cause restriction with wheelchair access or pushchairs. 

PARKING: There is a small car park to the rear of the School of Art building which is located just off Cleveland Street/ Bourne Bank (please note if you park here vehicles will need to be removed at 3pm prompt otherwise they may get locked in when we close the site). Additional parking can be found along Queen St, please take note of on street parking restrictions and payment meters; outside Burslem Town Hall on Market Place (ticket machine), there is a Long Stay car park on Chapel Lane, ST6 2AB a short walk away from the School of Art building. 

*Please note we are now back in the School of Art building on Queen Street in Burslem!
