About this Event

Join us for an eco-friendly craft session! You are invited to join us for a sustainable needle felting workshop - come away from this workshop with a new skill and your own unique artwork!

How will the session work?:

We will use responsibly sourced wool which will be needle felted into simple designs for beginners or anything of the participants choice. We will discuss different ways of sourcing wool and alternative felting materials. This is a beginner friendly craft and will involve a discussion of sustainable materials sourcing.

No experience is needed, just enthusiasm and willingness to learn! Tea and Coffee will be available to purchase on the day for 50p a cup. This workshop is for university staff, students and the wider Glagsow community!
