Show and Tell – Textile & Knitting Workshop
Come join Vawn Corrigan in St. Andrew’s Community Centre for a fascinating exploration of the rich tradition of Irish textiles.
Learn about the history and cultural significance of making with a lively slide show from heritage author Vawn Corrigan. This is a visual journey through Ireland’s past with historic and contemporary images.
Vawn shares a wealth of knowledge and passion for Ireland’s profound relationship with making.
If YOU have any interesting handmade or heirloom pieces bring them along for the show-and-tell after the slide show (old arans, crochet, lace, tweed, tableware, embroidery). share stories from your family’s handwork.
Book signing by the author Irish Tweed and Irish Aran (The O’Brien Press) available for €15 at the event.
This event is free but booking is required at Eventbrite
Ooo interested. Just finished textile heritage renewal course in Liberties College where we learned some weaving. I want to learn it all now. I’ll pass it to the rest of the class too.
Hi Susan, if you’re interested I’d recommend booking on eventbrite as it is limited availability.
