COMMUNICATION, BEHAVIOUR & ART
Art Workshops For Children
For Schools, Local Councils, Museums and Art Galleries in and around Perth, WA
Before life as a behaviour analyst and communication specialist, I spent fifteen years as a freelance artist in the UK, consulting with schools about their art strategy and delivering art projects and workshops for schools, museums, art galleries, festivals and local councils. I also ran training sessions for teachers and adults who worked with children, taught A-Level and community ceramics, won art prizes and residencies and gained funding for many art projects.
My artwork has been exhibited in various art galleries, with a series of sculptures housed in a permanent collection in Wolverhampton City Art Gallery.
While I no longer run my own art workshops, I offer art workshops (for children or adults) for schools, community groups, local councils, museums and art galleries.
I'm flexible, with experience in multiple art forms. I tailor art workshops/projects to your requirements with a curriculum based on your preferences, priorities and timing. Alternatively, I can suggest ideas.
My workshops can have a cross-curricular element, for example, combining history and art or learning about insects with a MiniBeasts art workshop.
Please contact me to explore ideas for your organisation.

“I cannot say enough about Sophie! This multitalented person made such a huge difference in the children’s lives. They look forward to every single class with her.
Sophie is eclectic, passionate, fun, warm, caring and most important she makes you feel comfortable from the minute you meet her! No one in class felt left out; we had a great time communicating during the classes. I definitely, highly recommend Sophie as the first resource to people who struggle with public speaking anxiety or to people who need to improve!
Actually, I highly recommend, any, if not all the workshops with Sophie…It will be money well spent.”
