Join us at this class to relax and enjoy engaging in the hands-on creation of your very own rag rug using a range of supplied materials. Learn to make your own cardboard weaving loom to keep too. Leave with new-found skills in rag rugging, weaving and textile up-cycling and repurposing.
We will also be exploring Chindi influences, Indian inspired fabric upcycling. There is no experience required to participate.
This workshop focuses on slowing down fast fashion and repurposing of textile waste. Textile and clothing waste is one of the world's big polluters and causes much environmental concern.
Your instructor Leisa Antonio-Hearps is the heart and soul behind Healing India Creative Arts. She is committed to sustainable artistry, contemporary creativity, and respectfully encompassing traditional Indian-inspired influences across her creative art practice.
Leisa enjoys facilitating multidisciplinary creative art workshops in our local community and she has been awarded Local community art awards for her designs in Basketry, Glass art, and Jewellery. With a rich background in fostering community through her studies in Social sciences combined with professional development and studies in dressmaking, and art, she always offers an inviting inclusive space for all to explore their artistic abilities while emphasizing the importance of environmental care.
Our weekly farmer's market will be in full swing during your workshop, so it's worth arriving a little early to check out the stalls and maybe buy some fresh produce.
Perth City Farm is a community urban farm that supports connected, sustainable communities. Established on a former industrial site in East Perth, this polluted site has been lovingly rehabilitated by volunteers to become a Western Australian icon for environmental sustainability and community engagement. We provide space and opportunities to build community connections, and educate and enable people to live sustainably.
