During the week of 29 July – 3 August, six free drop-in workshops were held at Haverfordwest Town Museum, led by Heidi Baker and Julia Griffiths Jones.
The invitation was to make a line drawing of an object from the museum collection, and then work with this to create cutout drawings and then layer these with further drawings. The resulting drawings will be included in a screen-printed design for gift-wrapping paper for the Museum that celebrates the collection.
129 members of the public contributed drawings during the 6 afternoon sessions.
In addition to the above 8 local artists also contributed drawings.
