About this Event

Flying the Flag for Green Libraries - Flag Making Workshop for young people and children

Join us at Oldham Library and help bring our community flag to life at this free, family-friendly workshop celebrating Flying the Flag for Green Libraries!

Led by Cabasa CIC, you’ll work with professional artists to turn your area’s collaborative design into a naturally dyed flag using batik (painting with hot wax). Suitable for ages 10+

There will also be tie-dye activities suitable for children of all ages.

Each flag will celebrate nature and the power of libraries, becoming part of a Greater Manchester-wide touring exhibition with 10 unique flags - one for each local authority - to be created during Green Libraries Week (27 October - 2 November).

No experience needed, just bring your creativity! All materials are provided. Spaces are free but limited (20 participants per workshop), so book early to secure your place.

Flying the Flag for Green Libraries is funded by Libraries Connected North West. All children under 16 must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
