Smethwick Imaginarium Flowing Streams: Game-Making Workshop

An environmentally focused workshop that explores the cultural, industrial, religious and meteorological significance of water.

Join artist Harun Morrison for an environmentally focused workshop that explores the cultural, industrial, religious and meteorological significance of water. The workshop is centered around Flowing Streams, the prototype of a water-themed board game that invites participants to explore future shapes it might take. You are invited to co-develop, test and play a new version of the games rule system and game play, using a board and set of icons as prompts.
