A one-day workshop called "Balloon Basics - Level 1", organised by Creative Craftworkshops UK, is due to be held in Potters Bar early in January.
This is an intensive hands-on type course that examines all aspects of the business of balloons. It offers a comprehensive introduction, detailing the skills needed, the various techniques of construction and conveying knowledge essential to progress in the craft sector.
An entry-level workshop giving a firm grounding in Balloon Artistry, it is delivered by a well-qualified expert tutor of 18 years standing, and experience in both teaching and working in the industry.
This is a chance to try something new and should be of interest to those looking to learn more about arts and crafts. In the past possibly viewed as a niche area, opportunities for personal development in balloon art do now exist, and graphic design could be seen as a modernist reflection of the broader arts and crafts movement. There may even be those who want to take it a step further and may look upon it as a future career option.
Tickets cost £250 inclusive of lunch. For more details and to book a spot in advance, contact the organisers.
The Balloon Basics - Level 1 workshop will take place between 9:30 am and 5:00 pm on Monday, January 11, 2021 at The Builders Arms, Potters Bar.
