Tree creatures

Unleash your creativity and reconnect with nature by creating your own dream catcher, talisman, or hanging art piece for your home.

In this hands-on workshop which you can drop-in and join anytime, you'll transform found tree elements - such as leaves, twine, and wood pieces, alongside other wildlife pieces like feathers, into imaginative sculptural pieces. Guided by an art expert, you'll learn how to weave, bind, and twine these natural materials into captivating forms. As you craft your pieces that could become your dream catcher, or a hanging ornament, your appreciation for the trees that live around us will awaken.

Whether you are an experienced artist or a curious beginner, drop-in for a short or long time to create an imaginative piece to take back home and find the perfect spot for. This workshop is suitable adults and older teens.
