🐔🌈 Chickens, Chickens, Chickens… Oil Pastel Workshop | Ages 5–9 📍 VanGogh Campus - 64 Rosstown Road Carnegie 🐣 FOR KIDS How many chickens are too many chickens? Trick question. There is no such thing. In this workshop, we’re filling our bright coloured paper with the most fabulous flock you’ve ever seen. Tall chickens. Round chickens. Silly chickens. Fancy chickens. And here’s the best part — they don’t have to be plain. Polka dots? Zigzags? Stripy rainbow tails? Neon pink wings? Did you know chickens come in hundreds of different colours and feather patterns in real life? Some even look like they’re wearing fluffy trousers! We’ll use glowing oil pastels to layer colours, mix shades, and create patterns that make each chicken completely unique. If you love animals… this is your farm. ⸻ 👨‍👩‍👧 FOR PARENTS Chickens, Chickens, Chickens… is a vibrant oil pastel workshop designed especially for young animal lovers. Working on bright coloured paper, children explore colour theory in a hands-on way — learning how contrasting colours pop, how layering creates richness, and how pattern builds visual interest. Repeating shapes and decorative details gently strengthen focus and attention span while keeping the experience joyful and playful. Oil pastel is a beautiful medium for this age group. It allows bold expression while building control, pressure awareness, and confidence in mark-making. If your child lights up at the sight of animals and loves colour, this workshop gives them space to explore both. Spots at VanGogh campus tend to fill quickly — especially our animal-themed sessions.
