About the Transformative Textiles Workshop

Discover being resourceful by learning to manage repurposed and recycled materials to create unique and interesting small sculptures, contemporary jewellery, or interior / garden artworks.

Using unconventional and unusual textile materials, there will be an emphasis on exploring techniques that can also be applied to create light shades, baskets, sculptures, cushions and more - the choices are huge with your outcomes being totally unexpected and surprising.
