Practical art workshops delivered by one of BALTIC’s experienced artist facilitators develop your pupils’ artistic inspiration, influences, skills and techniques.
Artist Studio Sessions give your pupils the opportunity to get initial inspiration for projects, develop new artistic practices, work closely with a practicing artist and explore their own thinking, sketch booking, documentation and artistic reasoning.
