Claudia has been facilitating workshops for over 20 years throughout Australia for schools and communities.
School based and adult workshops have received excellent feed back from teachers, students and communities alike. 

Wearable Art Workshops can be tailored to suit most age groups and the content is flexible enough to allow for intensive delivery over a few days or it can be done over a number of weeks.

Students find the workshops highly enjoyable and relish in creating in novel mediums, such as wearable art, recycled materials, permanent and ephemeral installations using recycled materials and sculpture.

Claudia is about to release a new workshop outline 
​  "The Art of Wearable Waste" 
​If you are interested in Wearable Art workshops for your community or school please contact Claudia.

 
“I have always been excited to work with practitioners and creative professionals willing to share their knowledge, expertise and wisdom with young art students, Claudia Williams embodies this wholeheartedly! I have repeatedly booked Ilani Creative  to work alongside Year 9 and 10 Art students on their wearable art Units. Claudia is highly engaging and imparts expert practical skills and industry knowledge, insights, and experiences in her delivery of workshops and artist talks. She tailors her delivery, content, and resources in line with Australian Curriculum and teacher needs; in her workshops there is always time for experimentation and play with unusual materials, techniques, and processes. Finally, Claudia builds authentic rapport with students and schools, working professionally and with care to enhance students creative learning experiences”

Wearable Art

"This workshop delivered By Claudia Williams was outstanding. Her Powerpoint presentation
met Australian Curriculum standards and the school based criteria for assessment.
Students were engaged and learned new skills based on her wealth of knowledge.
Claudia has an excellent rapport with the students and managed her time equally with all.
The students work was highly resolved and I attribute this to the quality of the workshop they
experienced at the beginning of the unit."

"It has been a delight to have Claudia come and work with our students on wearable art projects over the last couple of years. Her wealth of knowledge and experience in the industry leaves the students in awe. Claudia’s hands on approach is highly effective and efficient, often on a tight time frame with the incursion workshops, students get a real sense of accomplishment and great starting points to build on. Her expertise in design elements to emphasise repetition and texture coupled with her use of materials to promote sustainability, recycling and upcycling aligns beautifully with the goals within our art classroom"

PLAY

"This was one of the best artist led workshops I have been
involved in. Kids were actively engaged and we all
learned so many techniques. All the students were able
to create at least one part of a costume in a short period
of time.
Skills acquired during the workshop were successfully
applied to personal projects. Claudia's related very well
to the students and was extremely inspirational. We'd
love to have her back sometime."
