Inspired by the modern classic by local author Julia Donaldson, and the famous animations by Axel Scheffler, come to explore the world of The Gruffalo in this art class! These days we can find the Gruffalo on both stage and screen, as well as on the page. Who would you like to be in the story of The Gruffalo? We will illustrate the story ourselves. How will we make the texture of the Gruffalo's hairy fur, the slithering snake and the clever mouse? About The Conservatoire Welcome to the Blackheath Conservatoire, the home of creativity...
