About the event

Queerative Workshop: Op & Pop with Ellen
🎨🌈 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?

πŸ’…πŸ½ Op & Pop is more than just upcycling – it’s a whole mindset!

Join us for a fun, three-hour workshop where we’ll:

πŸ›οΈ 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:

πŸ–ΌοΈ Art Colabs – embellishing existing art works
πŸ‘• 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.

πŸ’– All materials provided

πŸ“ Rotorua Arts Village
πŸ—“οΈ Date & Time – Saturday 26 July 1pm - 4pm
🚢 Approx. 10min walk included

Let’s connect, create, and celebrate in this joyful, inclusive space. 🌈✨
