Drop-in and take part in a range of fun activities inspired by Henry Moore Institute's exhibition SUNLIGHT: Roger Ackling.

This workshop will provide a safe, fun, and creatively stimulating environment for families to explore the themes, materials and processes within our current exhibition through creative play.

The new exhibition at Henry Moore Institute - SUNLIGHT: Roger Ackling is the first survey and most comprehensive exhibition of the work of artist Roger Ackling (1947–2014), one of the most quietly influential artists of the late twentieth century.

For fifty years Ackling consistently made objects by burning wood – focusing sunlight through the lens of a hand-held magnifying glass to scorch repeated patterns of lines on the surface.

This event is free of charge and no booking is required, just drop in any time between 10:30–12:30 and 13:30–15:30.

Suitable for families with children aged 3+. This is an intergenerational workshop – we encourage creativity in all ages! Children must be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the workshop.
