Join us at Thomas Tallis School in Greenwich for an evening of collective making with artist and teacher Dianne Minnicucci and her colleagues from the Art Department.
Drawing on their own specialisms in photography, collage, drawing, cyanotype, sculpture, and model-making, the team will lead teachers through a series of short, hands-on workshops that explore the connection between personal creative practice and classroom teaching.
The session will conclude with a collaborative display of the work created, followed by a group reflective discussion.
All materials and refreshments will be provided. This event is part of Autograph's teachers’ programme, and specifically programmed for primary and secondary teachers.
A three-year project to support the creative practice of art and photography teachers from global majority backgrounds, elevating the teacher as artist and artist as teacher.

Dianne Minnicucci is a London based visual artist exploring the boundaries of documentary storytelling.
Her work begins autobiographically, exploring family, memory, conflict and love, all carefully underpinned by an experimental approach that plays with layers, light, focus and fragmentation. Rooted in the domestic, Minnicucci presents familial moments, loaded with intimacy. She is interested in a sensitive, intuitive approach to documentary style photography, unravelling the tension between the obscuring and unveiling of identity, knowing and unknowing, the interior and exterior and desire and fear. Inspiration comes from artists such as Ming Smith, Lorna Simpson, Zohra Opoku, Zanele Muholi, Alex Llovet and Raymond Weeks. Minnicucci studied Fine Art Film and Video at Central St. Martins. She is subject leader for photography at Thomas Tallis School, a large comprehensive in south east London.
Autograph's events are popular, and often sell out. We recommend booking a ticket in advance. This event is free.
