Description
For Derry Halloween 2025 the Centre of Contemporary Art Derry~Londonderry invites artist Vanessa Marsh to design and deliver family friendly workshops in the the gallery on Thursday 30 & Friday 31 October 2025, at 11am–12pm & 12pm–1pm.
Northwest-based artist and illustrator Vanessa Marsh will lead family friendly workshops for Derry Halloween. Vanessa is known for her vibrant work. Her practice combines hand-painted papers, collage, and illustration – techniques she will bring to this year’s Derry Halloween programme.
Participants will use Vanessa’s specially created painted papers and a mix of art materials to design and construct expressive masks—each one a unique transformation of the self, inspired by the colours and symbols of Samhain.
The family friendly workshops take place in CCA, 10–12 Artilllery Street, Derry~Londonderry, BT48 6RG on Thursday 30 October and Friday 31 October. Available workshop times are 11am–12pm and 12pm–1pm. Tickets cost £5 per child. Children aged 2 and under are free. Book your your preferred date and time via this page.
