Interactive Ochre Workshops are run by archaeologist and Origins Centre curator, Tammy Hodgskiss.
The workshops are fun, messy spaces were guests learn about the earliest uses of ochre - from around 300 000 years ago - and the varied uses of these mineral pigments (from sunscreen to hide tanning). Through hands on activities, guests then make their own pigment powder from ochre stones, mix their own paint and create their own art, inspired by southern African rock art.
