Felt bowls (Ōtautahi)

- Saturday 23 May: 2pm-4pm (Bella Roake)
- Sunday 22 November: 12pm-2pm (Mirabel Oliver)

Did you know that felting is the oldest known way to make fabric? In this 2-hour workshop, you’ll explore the ancient art of felting to create a beautiful and functional felt bowl from natural, un-dyed Aotearoa wool. Using just wool, soap, and water, you’ll learn this simple practice that requires no machines or chemicals. Once you’ve mastered the process, you’ll have the skills and confidence to continue felting at home, unlocking endless possibilities for creating beautiful, handmade pieces. Please note

- Please bring 2 towels and a bag, as your felting may still be wet when it’s time to take it home.
- All other materials and tools will be provided
- Food & Drink – Bring a water bottle to keep hydrated, and any food or snacks you may need over the course of the workshop. To observe tikanga, we ask that no food or hot drinks are consumed in the work space, a separate area will be available for breaks.
- This workshop is for adults aged 18 and older, or for young people aged 16–17 who attend with a supervising adult. Please note that if a young person attends, two workshop places must be purchased (one for the young person and one for the accompanying adult). Cancellation
