Follow-Up Monster-Making Workshops from Out Of Cossack Exhibition Opening
Keep the creativity flowing! Our follow-up sessions are the perfect chance for young artists (ages 7+) to continue developing their Freaky Little Friends. If you’ve already started your creature, these workshops give you time to refine, decorate, and bring even more personality to your creation.
These sessions are all about exploring ideas, experimenting with materials, and having fun. Whether your character is quirky, spooky, or completely out-of-this-world, there’s space to let your imagination run wild.
Plus, every creation will be part of the 2026 Karratha Youth Exhibition and a special animation, giving your freaky little friend the chance to come alive on screen. Join us to continue your creative journey and see your ideas take shape!
