🎨🌈 Op & Pop: Creating Art from Second-Hand Scores 🌈🎨
Presented by Rotorua Chamber of Pride
Need a splash of colour for your whare? Want to turn a tee into a statement piece? Or transform an old toy into something totally fabulous?
💅🏽 Op & Pop is more than just upcycling – it’s a whole mindset!
Join us for a fun, three-hour workshop where we’ll:
🛍️ Take a short stroll to a local op shop to find some hidden treasures
🎨 Head back to the Arts Village and transform your finds into something brand new
✨ Enjoy a rainbow-friendly space filled with creativity, good vibes, drinks & snacks
You’ll get to choose one of three creative paths:
🖼️ Art Colabs – embellishing existing art works
👕 Fabric Collage – reworking tees into statement shirts
🧸 Toy Crafting – creating cute outfits, themed toys or possibly some monster mashing
This workshop is led by the talented Ellen Jones-Poole, a mixed-media artist and proud op-shop queen, fresh from her 2024 Summer Studio Residency. Ellen brings her flair from the film industry and her passion for thrifty, sustainable creativity.
