About
Gallery educators Joanna Conybeare and Emily Motto host a festive and fun drop-in workshop to make your own unique and personalised gift cards, amongst the gold and colour of our early Renaissance paintings. Take inspiration from the allegories, muses and angels, as well as scenes of the nativity, accompanied by a seasonal soundtrack.
No previous experience is necessary and all materials are provided.

Joanna Conybeare is an artist and Gallery Educator who has worked in Primary and Secondary schools in London and the south coast as a teacher and subject lead for Art and Design. In her own artistic practice, she uses clay, porcelain and terracotta to explore the figure, enjoying the immediacy of the material that enables her to ‘draw’ three-dimensionally.
Emily Motto is a Gallery Educator and award-winning artist working in sculpture, installation and drawing. She studied on the Foundation Diploma in Art and Design at Central Saint Martins and went on to study BFA Fine Art at the Ruskin School of Art, graduating in 2014. Motto has since exhibited at various galleries including the ICA London, Pangaea Sculptors’ Centre and Beaconsfield Gallery Vauxhall.
