There are parts of us that don't always rush to the surface. Not hidden exactly; they're simply not always invited out.
This gathering is an invitation to bring a little of your inner world into something you can hold in your hands.
We're coming together to craft individual textile hearts, which will become part of a large collaborative installation for HushFest, Cornwall's festival of quietness. You'll have the opportunity to work with materials that invite creativity and feel good to touch: wool, felt, crochet, pom poms, fabric scraps. We also have some easy-to-use heart-making kits if you'd like a simple place to start.
Sue, our workshop lead, will be there to guide you gently. There is no right way to make a heart. You're invited to work in your own time, at your own pace, in whatever way feels natural to you. You're welcome to sit quietly and focus on your making, or join in with soft conversation as you prefer. There's no pressure to introduce yourself in a particular way, or to explain what your heart represents.
Whether you see yourself as creative or not, you're welcome here. There is a way for everyone to take part.
Each heart we create will be joined with others to form the final Quiet Hearts display during HushFest. When they come together, they'll show something quietly remarkable: that when people feel valued as they are, their colour and creativity come forward. The vibrancy was always there. It simply needed room.
Sue will also be available at the Tuesday Camborne Meet Ups in the weeks leading up to the workshop, if you'd like to get a head start.
