Tuesday 28 June, 6-8pm, Craft Opportunities- Basket Makers Monthly

$0.00

For those of you who have attended one of our basket making workshops - come back, practice and refresh your skills!

This session with Ngaio Cowell, is an opportunity to enjoy basket weaving with others, at our Matatiki Toi Ora Arts Centre workshop, located upstairs in the former Boys’ High building at 28 Worcester Boulevard.

We are very excited to host this regular session for those who share a love for basket weaving, are looking to enjoy time weaving together. We invite you to join us for weaving and weaving related inspiration. Bring a project to work on.

We would love to see any of your weaving experiments so please feel free to bring them along so we can learn from each other.

These sessions are available to those who have previously attended our basket weaving workshop.

Please bring with you some pre-soaked tī kōuka leaves for your work, but rest assured that we will provide enough for those of you who that will not be practical for.

Ngaio Cowell (Tainui; Ngāti Te Ata & Ngāti Porou) is a craftsperson who takes inspiration from nature. Ngaio is currently in her second year of studying raranga at Te Wānanga o Aotearoa. She has learnt to weave with tī kōuka from Diana Duncan and continues to create artworks from foraged and native materials through business Tipu Toi.
