The artist Bob and Roberta Smith once said "Make your own damn art"... here are some ideas to get you started...
Bob came to Tate Britain to spend a week with teenagers to make new art. They held debates in which Gainsborough, Constable and Turner discussed drug abuse and teenage pregnancy. They carved sculptures out of vegetables and studied noses in the gallery.
The result was a poster in which Bob and the group set a few challenges for you to try at home... draw noses... make sculptures from trainers... experience beauty... make your own damn art!
