Creative Callouts

Creative Workshops: Artist Callout

Monday 26 October, 11AM - 3PM

From Monday 26 - Friday 30 October 2026, WX will be celebrating Halloween half term, transforming into a spooky space with family friendly activities! This year’s theme is the Haunted Wild West!

WX are seeking two artists to deliver drop-in creative workshops on Monday 26 October. The sessions will be for children, and we anticipate there will be a high footfall so the outputs should be simple and fairly quick to make. We would love to hear your ideas, which might follow the theme of Halloween, the Wild West, or both!

Application deadline: Midnight Sunday 9 August
