ST*ART Symbols with Norwich Castle

Introduction

ST*ART...Symbols is an arts and creativity programme for those aged 14-plus.

Let's get started!

Do

Symbols convey a meaning beyond what we see on the surface.

In this session we're going to look at how artists use symbols and how you can create a symbolic portrait.

Meet the Artist

Each week we interview a different artist and ask them five tricksy questions... what would your answers be?
