About this event
Join artist Holly Scholfield at Great Cornard Library and discover the world of textiles and print! This is part of O Projeto Página em Branco which offers high-quality creative workshops for 10-16 year olds during the school holidays.
Workshops take place from 9.45AM to 3.30PM and include lunch, drinks and snacks! Book this workshop on Eequ.
Inspired by poetry and nature, students will explore pattern, texture, and mark-making through drawing and painting. Using these creative experiments as a starting point, they will develop their own unique fabric designs, playing with colour, repetition, and surface texture.
Participants will learn how to use fabric paints and traditional Indian block-printing techniques to create beautiful printed textiles. They will also discover the art of stitching and mending through Japanese sashiko and Indian kantha embroidery.
This hands-on workshop encourages experimentation, creative discovery, and personal expression, giving students the opportunity to develop their own designs in to a cushion cover, tote bag or t-shirt!
