We’ve teamed up with LOOKUP Portsmouth to organise a spray paint workshop just for Brave Island members!
Join us for a creative day off the Island to explore Portsmouth’s thriving street art scene. We’ll follow a map of some of the city’s iconic murals curated by LOOKUP, an annual street art festival that brings together top international, national, and local artists to transform the city with permanent artworks.
You’ll get to explore these pieces and then take part in a hands-on spray paint workshop, run by one of LOOKUP’s artists Donna (@winniemayartist), where you’ll learn the techniques needed to paint with spray cans.
Whether you’re into street art or want to try something new, this opportunity is great for anyone interested in visual art, or just wanting a trip off the Island and to meet some new people!
Practical info: This opportunity is completely free, including travel. To apply, please tell us why you would like to take part. For this opportunity you will need to make your own way to Ryde Pier Head, we’ll catch the 11.45am Wightlink boat to Portsmouth. We’ll be walking approximately 3.5miles in total, stopping for lunch and the workshop part way through. We will be returning back to Ryde on the 4.15pm boat.
Opportunity Date & Time: Monday 27th October, 11.45am – 4.40pm.
