Have you ever sat on the beach (or on the Downs) with your children and been stuck for things to do with them?

At the Basketry Festival, Danny will be offering a 2-hour workshop, demonstrating and teaching two basketry techniques (coiling and twining) with a range of beach and downland materials to make a small ring/ jewellery basket.

These techniques can be applied to an infinite variety of projects from baskets, placemats, sculpture, lighting and jewellery. Students will get the opportunity to discuss these options and look at a variety of examples with the view of continuing this craft at home.

Course Tutor - Danny Manning

Danny is a highly qualified and experienced basketmaker, now teaching at Eastbourne College, including the popular Eco Crafts for All course.

The workshop places are £20, of this £5 will be donated to Love Your Ouse to help with the river clean-up.
