Heritage Hands: Make 'n' Movie

Bring your project and make at the movies!

Featuring Practical Magic (1998)

Join us for a relaxed evening of making, movie magic and good company at Heritage Hands: Make ’n’ Movie.

Bring along your knitting, crochet, embroidery, cross-stitch, hand sewing, mending, beading, sketchbook or another portable creative project and settle in for a screening of the much-loved film Practical Magic (1998).

Whether you've been making for decades, have recently picked up a craft, or have a half-finished project waiting for some attention, Make ’n’ Movie is about the simple pleasure of making in company.

Making with Monique Ross

We're delighted to welcome Monique Ross from Heartwood Nature Bathing, who will be joining us for the evening and sharing her passion for natural fibres and traditional basketry.

Monique will be demonstrating coiled basketry techniques, offering an opportunity to see this beautiful craft in action, ask questions and discover how natural materials can be transformed through traditional hand skills.

What to bring

Bring your own portable craft project and whatever materials or tools you'll need. Chairs will be provided, with tables available if you need a little more working space.

BYO refreshments are welcome, and a selection of pre-packaged snacks and non-alcoholic drinks will be available for purchase.
