Free arts workshops to test your talents are coming to Paisley this autumn

Drawing, painting, pastels, textiles and animation workshops are all part of the Outspoken Arts Scotland autumn programme.

The Paisley-based art group is keen to build on the success of its Artworks summer programme, which sold out.

Workshops will take place in Artspace33, which is Unit 33 inside the Sir James Clark building in Seedhill. They are free but participants must register via Eventbrite.

Steven Thomson, creative director of Outspoken Arts Scotland, said: “We were blown away by the success of our summer workshop programme, with each of them selling out, so we decided to put together another free workshop programme for autumn.

Outspoken Arts is based in Paisley (unknown)

“Again, we are working with established artists on a range of visual arts including pastels, painting, animation, drawing and collage.

“We look forward to welcoming participants to Artspace33.”

The workshops include pastels with award-winning Scottish artist Lynn Howarth on October 1 and 16 at 11am; a drawing workshop with Iona Kewney at 11am on October 7 and 14; and Russell MacEwan will host animation sessions, How to Think When You Draw Comics, at 11am on October 9 and 15.

On October 13 and November 4, Florence Dwyer will host a textiles workshop; Marion Gardyne will teach sessions on creating collages on October 21, 26 and November 2; painter Payam Beint will offer workshops on October 28 at 10am and 2pm; while Eoghann MacColl offers painting sculptural workshops on November 16 and 18.
