Winter of Wellbeing: Digital Riot
2 March 2022
Join us for Digital Riot! An exciting free workshop celebrating drag, gender identity and its involvement within Welsh protest history.
This project, inspired by the history of the Rebecca Rioters explores identity as a form of protest.
Digital Riot will aim to do this through holding a workshop for young people from ages 10 to 14 at St Fagans National Museum of History.
The day will be divided into three parts.
- Design your own protest badge
- Make protest signs inspired by the history of the Rebecca Riots
- And lastly, wearing our badges and using our protest signs we will visit the toll house at St Fagans to stage and photograph our own mini-Rebecca riot
An ‘Art pack’ filled with artistic resources and materials will be provided to each participant
This free workshop will take place at 12-2pm on the 12 March 2022. Participants can join either at St Fagans in person or digitally over Zoom. To book your space please contact info@galeriesimpsonswansea.com
Digital Riot is a project devised by artist Abigail Fraser for the 9-90 community outreach programme from GS artists Swansea, as part of the Winter of Wellbeing funded by Welsh Government.
