What you’ll do
Join a playful fabric-crafting workshop with artist Charmaine Wombwell. Through making and sharing, you’ll be invited to explore how we visualise our bodies, memories and emotions.
Experiment with gluing, stitching and binding yarn, scraps of cloth and other materials to create a piece of work that expresses your relationship with a part of your body or an emotional experience. Share your story through the piece you create.
It is up to you what you do with your piece. You can take it away with you or you can attach it to a large mannequin in the room as part of a growing collective display.
You’ll be able to drop in and out of the workshop. Go at your own pace and stay for as long as you like.
If you need a space away from the event at any time, you can go to our Chill-Out Room. There will be low lighting, comfortable seating, cushions, mats and space to move around and be yourself. You can also make use of ear defenders, earplugs, board games, stim toys and materials with different textures.
The workshop is inspired by the exhibition ‘Jason and the Adventure of 254’, which is free to visit on the day.
