In this workshop you will learn the science behind ink making, create your own ink and then tests it using a calligraphy pen.

Participants will also get to take home their handmade long-lasting ink for their own creative art projects!

****
This workshop is being presented by Colin from Science and Wonders and will take place in Hive’s Studio One
****
This hands-on workshop is also suitable for interested children attending without adults and does not assume any particular science knowledge. However, due to the nature of practical science, an ability to follow the presenter’s instructions is required. If your child is disruptive, you will be asked to come and collect them for everybody’s safety.

Participants will need to be at Hive by the designated start time. Adults are welcome to stay with their children or to leave them, but we ask that they are picked up promptly at the end of the workshop.
