The course is designed for anyone who feels they need a slower pace, a little more space, or a gentle creative reset. It offers time for restoration, reflection, and quiet connection—with the natural world, with others, and with yourself.
Places are limited and offered with care, so that those who will benefit most have the opportunity to take part.
Through the ancient practice of basket-weaving with foraged natural materials, we’ll explore how making can support wellbeing.
Sessions include:
- Collecting and preparing natural plant fibres from the local landscape
- Noticing how the seasons shape which materials are available
- Learning traditional weaving techniques such as twining, coiling and simple frame basketry
Sessions are free to ensure cost is not a barrier, though donations toward expenses are very welcome and support future opportunities at the gallery.
No experience is needed, and the emphasis is on enjoyment rather than perfection!
Sessions run from Wednesday 3rd September to Wednesday 29th October (excluding Wednesday 10th September) from 12.30pm - 3pm
