Inspired by Jacqui Parkinson’s stunning exhibition Threads Through the Bible, this hands-on weaving workshop invites children to discover the ancient craft of weaving, and to create something beautiful of their own.
Led by Mother Anne-Marie, children will learn the basics of weaving using a range of colourful materials, exploring how threads can tell stories just as they do in Jacqui’s extraordinary silk panels.
Each child will leave with their own woven piece to take home as a keepsake.
Suitable for primary school-age children (must be accompanied by an adult at all times). Places are strictly limited — advance booking is essential.
