About
A free family drop-in craft session making a winged feathery bird, inspired by the National Gallery Masterpiece Tour painting at South Shields Museum.
This week's Wellness Weekend open studio session invites families to make a winged feathery bird from craft materials. It is part of a series of Saturday drop-in workshops in the learning room, inspired by Pierre Mignard's The Marquise de Seignelay, on loan from the National Gallery until 7 November 2026. Children and adults can explore art-inspired crafts together between 11:30am and 3pm.
