Learn how to make your own festive door wreath from locally foraged materials. Unlike many other wreath classes, you will start from scratch by first making the hoop, and then decorating it with your choice of foliage and natural decorative elements. Much of the foliage is foraged from around the Cotesbach Estate.  The wreaths are biodegradable, with the exception of the wire and ribbon, which can be re-used. No experience is necessary, you will be guided through every step of the process, in a small, friendly and informal group setting. Ticket includes mulled wine or hot drink on arrival.

This workshop uses a playful and exploratory approach as a way of reflecting on and creating dialogue about the things we keep and the memories which they hold. Starting with an array of old fabrics, artist Jacqui Gallon will introduce simple, ordinary techniques - weaving, braiding, knotting, tying, twisting - as methods which resonate through their 'everydayness' to show how these can transform old textiles/haberdashery into new objects which still retain a sense of recollection, of memory of the past and the textile archive from which the fabrics were sourced. The workshop aims to create a space in which connections between each other and with the past are encouraged, a space where we can exchange stories as affirmation of what it means to be human. This reciprocal exchange of stories is a form of gifting. You will take home an object, perhaps abstract in form, made from bits and pieces from the textile archive at Cotesbach, an object which holds not only the history of the house but also the memory of the act of making and connection. All materials and equipment will be provided. No experience is necessary, just a willingness to try new ways of making and share material memories. There will be time for lunch, you can either bring your own or head to the on site Cafe 'The Yard Cafe' and enjoy some delicious homemade food.
