Set Your 2026 Intentions with an Adult Artmaking Workshop at Zeitz MOCAA This Weekend

This January, start the year on a positive and purposeful note by joining the Adult Artmaking Workshop at Zeitz MOCAA! Inspired by the Albie Award, situated in the Spring Is Rebellious: The Art & Life of Albie Sachs exhibition, the workshop allows you to set your goals and intentions for the year. Here’s everything you need to know.

All About the Artmaking Workshop

In the exhibition Spring Is Rebellious: The Art & Life of Albie Sachs, visitors can find a replica of The Albie Award, named after Albie Sachs who received a Lifetime Achievement in Pursuit of Justice award at the inaugural ceremony.

Created by George and Amal Clooney, The Albies honour individuals and groups who courageously defend human rights across the world. These awards embody courage, integrity and humanity – qualities that continue to inspire the world.

In this spirit, the workshop invites you to reflect on the qualities you wish to nurture or the goals you want to achieve in 2026. Working with clay and symbolism, guests can create their own Award of Intention—a personal, meaningful object that embodies your aspirations and celebrates your future self, manifesting your intentions as if they have already been achieved.

The Zeitz MOCAA Adult Workshop Programme offers adults a creative experience to strengthen their connection to art and deepen their engagement with the exhibitions on view. All materials and equipment are provided, along with tea and snacks.
