About this Event

Join this creative workshop for some stitching, chatting, and sharing inspired by the museum’s collections.

What you’ll get:

  • Techniques taught by professional artist Helen Mather
  • Specially designed resources to support learning and stitching
  • All materials provided for your creations



Inspiration:

Next year will see the centenary of The General Strike of 1926. In this session, we will look at how people and communities have organised to challenge inequality and discrimination in the workplace. Participants are invited to explore their responses through textiles and stitch.

Explore resources and creations to inspire yours.

All textile abilities welcome, suitable for 12+ (under 16s must have an accompanying adult)


  • We are able to offer a limited number of free places to people in economic difficulty – please help us to continue to offer this by only taking it if you need it.
