Workshop Programme
We are an active textile art group, holding workshops most months of the year. The workshops cover a variety of skills and techniques and we aim to provide a wide range of techniques and inspirations. They are suitable for all skill levels. Workshops are open to non-members when not fully subscribed, please contact us for details.
In August we generally have an outing to somewhere of interest and we hold regular exhibitions of members work. View photographs of our most recent exhibition ‘Colours, Textures and Heritage of Lancashire’ using this link.
Friday evening sessions start at 7.15pm and usually run for about 2 hours. Saturday workshops usually start at 10.15am and finish at approx 3.30pm. We occasionally run 2 day weekend workshops.
