Art & Craft from the Celtic Wheel of the Year

1st Wednesday evenings of the month 7pm - 9pm £15

Suitable for adults and young people age 12+ attending with an adult.

Join Heather for a series of nature based, mindful and fascinating workshops based around the Ancient Celtic Wheel of the Year. We will be exploring the traditional crafts of the time and applying our own personal ideas to create finished pieces that we can use to decorate our homes or gift to loved ones.

These workshops will be informal and friendly and you won't need any artistic talent or skill (although Heather believe’s we all possess these!). As well as learning about our fascinating heritage, we will explore both modern and traditional methods such as printmaking, weaving, embroidery and botanical art.
