Human Loom at Cruinniú na nÓg
Looking for a unique and exciting activity to do with your children 5-12 years old this summer? We invite you to join our Human Loom Workshop! You will learn the basics of weaving, sewing, and lacing. Use a piece of fabric to express your creativity by drawing, writing on it using fabric markers, yarns, beads, and buttons.
Following this, we will have the thrilling opportunity to collaborate with others and weave our creations into a Human Loom! This second part of the workshop will be held outdoors, weather permitting, so be sure to dress comfortably.
Our workshop is not only about learning new skills but also about expressing creativity and having fun! It's an exploration of weaving through various activities including movement, music, writing, drawing, and oral storytelling.
Don't miss out on this unique experience! Places are limited, so sign up today for our Human Loom Workshop!
When 15th June 2024 1:30 - 3:30pm
