Dream Catcher Workshops

Workshop led by Angie Coburn

As part of BISM’s Art Week, the middle school children had the fantastic opportunity to work with external artists in a very exciting workshop run by freelance artist Angie Coburn.

Angie Coburn has a degree in textiles and fashion design and has been teaching across the globe for over twenty years. She runs a variety of events in Andalucia, from workshops to craft events. She also performs private commissions.

The workshop focused on creating large Dreamcatchers. The children were introduced to the art of Dreamcatchers and their history, and had the opportunity to work in groups to use a range of materials, to bind the hoops using ribbon, create the web in the centre and attach beautiful streamers laced with feathers. They had a choice of different materials and colours.

The children were ultimately exposed to a new art form. They were allowed to explore their individual creativity and develop their teamwork skills. The children really enjoy the workshop and produced some beautiful Dreamcatchers; the results were fantastic!
