About this Event
Dream Weaver Community Dreamcatchers (registration required)
Join us for a hands-on community weaving project where everyone is welcome, no art experience needed! Together, we’ll create a series of community dreamcatchers, inviting people of all ages and backgrounds to weave colour, fabric, and hopes into shared circles. Each piece will become a vibrant marker of belonging, showing how creativity can bind us together.
The workshops will be led by Dizzie Pixie, an award-winning mixed media artist based in Auckland, New Zealand. Known for her eclectic works made from reclaimed and up-cycled materials, Dizzie Pixie’s practice blends art and community, engaging people of all ages and backgrounds through playful, hands-on creativity.
Grab recycled fabric strips, write a dream, wish, hope, or story on your strip, and weave it onto a circular frame. Plait, chat, relax, and watch a vibrant, textured artwork grow. Every strip is unique, yet together they form a strong, colourful, and lively design, showing how each of us brings something special to our community.
Weaving is an age-old craft that tells stories and builds connection. This project celebrates creativity, wellbeing, and sustainability, turning unwanted fabrics into joyful, meaningful creations. Bring your own special fabric if you like, sip a warm drink, and enjoy a mindful, playful space that welcomes everyone.
Pick a strip, write your story, and weave or plait it onto a circle at your own pace. The artist will bring all the dreamcatchers together into one large, layered community artwork. Participants are then invited to return with friends and whānau to see the installation, a celebration of creativity, connection, and community spirit.
