Art Club: Punch Needle

Let's combat loneliness in the city and get together for some lovely crafting time! Join prolific crafter Shannon of Paige and Wynter for 7 weeks of discovery and creation.

Each session we will make something different and have the opportunity to utilize the variety of equipment and materials on offer.

Your host will show you the techniques and talk you through the process of step-by-step. Since this is a club, it would be great to see you at as many of the sessions as possible :) You'll meet lovely new people and get to relax with a new craft.

Week 1 - Lino print on your clothing! (Natural fibers like cotton are best)

Week 2 - Embellish your clothes and upcycling with beads, sequins, embroidery etc

Week 3 - Collage

Week 4 - Make a pom-pom garland

Week 5 - Origami

Week 6 - Punch needle

Week 7 - Wooden badge-making

Providing the club goes well, we will continue to run it past the 7 weeks. This is a club open to all, regardless of your artistic abilities, gender, race, religion etc! A safe space to make stuff in. With the cost of living crisis still in full swing, we will try to keep costs as low as possible. We can provide herbal tea and water, but you can BYOB if you like!

Location: Ollie Quinn on Park Street. Yes, it is a glasses shop!
