As well as creating products to sell, I enjoy running workshops for both adults and children. I feel that if you have a skill it should be shared so it doesn't die out.
Workshops for adults include:
Children's workshops include:
- Papier-Mâché
- Knitting
- Weaving
- Felt Making
- Clay
- and many more .....
I go into local schools, community centres and libraries to run sessions for adults and children.
Workshops and classes that I have run include:
- Childrens Workshops - Family Services, Isles of Scilly.
- Feltmaking Workshops - Arts For Health, Cornwall.
- NCFE Creative Crafts Course - Guinness Trust, Cornwall College.
- Introduction To Textiles - Helston College.
I have also run workshops for Truro Young Women's Centre, Cornwall Neighbourhoods For Change, Truro Arts, Lifelong Learning IOS, Lafrowda Festival, Ayr Field Community Group and Penwith Housing Association.
Schools that I have worked with include St Ives Infants School, St Ives Junior School, Crowan Primary School, Redruth School and Liskeard Community College. I have passed a CRB check, (via Cornwall County Council) and hold the relevant disclosure certificate.
I get as much satisfaction from seeing my students realize that they too can be creative given the right help and support, as I do from making something myself.
I can tailor any workshop to your requirements and deliver at any level from beginner to advanced. If you'd like me to run a workshop for your school, textile group, stitch n bitch group or community group let me know.
I'm happy to travel anywhere - in fact I'd love to visit your school or group.
I also offer individual tuition in any aspect of textile art.
Please get in touch if you would like me to run a course or workshop for you.
