In this workshop Noèmie will teach us basket weaving techniques that make use of the invasive weed old man's beard. This weed is a big problem in Te Whanganui-a-Tara. All materials will be prepped and supplied. You will go home with your own handmade basket!

Please arrive from 5:30pm to settle in with us. We will begin the workshop at 6pm and it should not run later than 9pm.

This workshop is offered by Micro Mill, a weaving collective based in Te Whanganui-a-Tara offering pop-up activations for connection through textiles. Our March activation is centred around showing support for Nöl Collective, based in Ramallah, Palestine, and the many families trying to evacuate Gaza. A portion of your workshop fees will be donated in a lump sum collected through the activation, to the family linked below.
