Hands up who likes to get hands on every now and then!? Bleeding Heart’s Hands On Brisbane program of craft, art and design workshops is back in 2014, turning their Ann Street gallery space into the sunshine state’s most bustling creative hub between February and May. Designed to unleash your inner maker, Hands On brings together a small group of talented artisans with a wealth of handicraft knowledge to share. You can choose from classes in mono- and screen-printing, stamp making, origami or DIY terrarium building. Let Simmone Spring teach you how to unlock the full potential of polymer clay – you’ll even come away with your own handcrafted pendant or earrings! For the adventurous, there are even crash courses in Romanian Point Lace and silversmithing. Check out the full program of workshops online and be sure to book your workbench. Hands on our hearts, we know you’ll love it!
