Making Things Art and Craft Club
A space for curious hands and creative minds ~ the Making Things Art Club invites children aged 9 to 12 to a week of hands on exploration, from weaving, kumihimo and macramé to paper craft and printmaking. Rooted in heritage craft and everyday materials, morning sessions run daily for 1 week in the ASTRL Fibres studio. Group sizes are small so every maker gets the time, space and individual attention to truly flourish. All materials are provided.
When: Monday August 10 to Friday August 14 | 10am to 12pm (daily)
Where: ASTRL Fibres Studio | 412 Woodstock Rd, Belfast BT6 9DQ
Ages: 9 – 12 years
