On 19th April, CONNECTIONS fibre artists Richard Boulet and Maya Candler hosted a relaxed, collaborative afternoon of FIBRE FUN<\/strong>, sharing and creation. Museum goers were invited to drop in and work with their hands and explore the contemplative space of textile art. Each visitor was given a pack of fabric samples that they then transformed into a textile work using beads, applique and embroidery. It was a great event – thank you to everyone who took part in the event! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Richard is now working with some of the textile creations from the workshop that people left behind as part of a new art work. We’ll keep you posted!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
