Australian Art & Design Secondary School Tour
In early October we have a group of Australian secondary school art and design students attending NZTE bespoke workshops at Fairfield House.
Maggy J, Sally Reynolds and Renee Clothier are all going to run bespoke one day textile-based workshops and we look forward to sharing photos in the October newsletter.
NZTE can cater for primary and secondary school groups so let us know if you know of any school groups we can tailor workshops for.
