Learn how to bring your pictures to life with stop-motion animation! For 13 to 16 year-olds only.

Join us on Thursday 29 October, 4:30pm to 6:30pm for a workshop led by Animating Education, where will learn about all things stop-motion!

For 13 to 16-year-olds only.

What is your experience of Southend-on-Sea? What kind of story would you like to tell?

Bring your drawings to life! With paper, pens, and scissors we will create our own narrative worlds and learn how to animate them using iPads.

Using stop motion as a medium, we will reflect on our communities and tell tales about the place where we live.

No experience required – just bring your imagination
