Create a Welcome Lei, Sustainably

Starting with sharing her insider's insights into our current exhibition Island Welcome, which explores jewellery as a gesture of greeting, Lauren will guide you through experimenting with making jewellery using found objects, deconstructed sustainable materials and new simple ‘low-fi’ techniques.

No experience in jewellery-making required, just a keenness to create, share ideas and have fun!

Please bring some recyclable (clean) materials for a shared table. We will also supply some crafting tools, materials and safety glasses.

*materials from home to share, which can include recycled materials e.g. clean bottle tops, plastics, foil, used wrapping papers, fabric, string and/or natural materials e.g. dry leaves, bark, seed pods

And any favourite crafting hand tools you might have
