Story Lab 2012

Story Lab

This event is now in the past.

Concoct stories using more than just words! Step in to the Story Lab and unleash your imagination these holidays.

Take one part truth, one part fiction, one part you and mix with green screen, camera, pen and pad to create your own weird, wonderful and wacky story!

Writing, photography, filmmaking, animation, blogging - choose the techniques that inspire you and join professional artists for fun and creative hands-on holiday workshops for ages 9 - 16.

These full-day workshops are specially designed to cater for different age groups and various learning styles, and are inspired by The Odditoreum exhibition.
