Sculpture workshop for young people - by artist Susie Olczak
Welcome to our first virtual workshop for young people.
This short, 25-minute video will guide you through a few ideas and techniques to make your own art work at home during this time of 'stay home, stay safe'.
Guest artist Susie Olczak is a sculptor and recent graduate from the Royal College of Art. Susie has been a freelance artist with us at the Fitzwilliam Museum for about seven years and we’re sure you’ll recognise her!
You can read more about Susie or see her artwork on her [website](http://www.susieolczak.co.uk/)
