Using museum artefacts across the Brighton Museum & Art Galleries sites, this course teaches how inspiration can be found everywhere. Participants’ work will be published on the Museum’s blog, the Creative Future website and selected pieces will go towards a published anthology to be sold in Brighton Museum’s shop and on-line. There will be a reading to launch the anthology with a two hour rehearsal session prior, details to be confirmed.

This course is delivered in partnership with the Brighton Museum & Art Gallery. We are grateful for their continued support.

Fee: £40/£20 per course.
