About this Event
As part of Objectspace’s pondside event programme, join us on Sunday 15 February for the first Ōtautahi Craft Club of 2026. The concept is simple – bring along your current project and join like-minded makers to craft and kōrero. We’ll have multi-disciplinary artist Emma Wallbanks with us on the day.
This is not a workshop or tutorial, but a dedicated time for mutual making. You could bring in an unfinished piece from a previous craft workshop or something you’ve been working away on for a while – knitting, whittling, crochet, origami, anything!
You bring your own materials and tools, we’ll provide the space and refreshments.
Registration is essential for this free event.

Emma Wallbanks is a multi-disciplinary artist currently based in Lyttelton. She studied at Ilam School of Fine Arts between 2012 and 2019 attaining a First Class Honors and a Master of Fine Arts. Alongside her exhibiting work, Emma Wallbanks founded her own independent clothing label in 2019, branded ‘Fascinating but Potentially Dangerous’. Akin to her visual practice, Wallbanks’ label focuses on the ‘edge’ as a thematic starting point. Clothing pieces are all one offs and treated much like her earlier sculptural works and video installations, insofar as their repurposed nature and rebellious sensibility.
