Join artists Emily Joy, Nicola Builder (Wayward Weaves) and Deborah Roberts for ‘Unweaving and Reweaving the Commons” – a public participatory ‘unweaving’ and reweaving workshop exploring our deep connections to local landscapes. You are invited to gradually and collaboratively pull threads from a large, printed textiles piece depicting the grassland environment on Rodborough Common, echoing the path erosion that is gradually reducing this rare wildflower habitat. Participants are then invited to reweave the pulled threads, working together to create a new collaborative fabric which carries traces of the printed image of the commons.

This is a free, drop-in workshop suitable for all ages, no previous weaving experience necessary. Do come and join us in the Walled Garden Pavilion. Drop in between 11am and 3pm.
