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!
