Join Tayside based artist and creative collaborator Gillian Adair in our Create Space for a special time carved out for parents and caregivers to respond to the works in Acts of Creation: On Art and Motherhood.

We’ll have a range of art materials, and the time will be left open for you to create, reflect on and respond to the exhibition however you’d like, with Gillian on hand to help and guide you as required. 

Please note, this time is designed for adults and is not a parent and child art session.
