Reclaim The Void NAIDOC week Workshops

Bayley Arts is presenting two weaving workshops for the Reclaim the Void project as part of this year's NAIDOC Week celebrations. The workshops coincide with the exhibition 

Concentric Unity: Jintaka- juku showing at Bayley Arts Gallery 6th to 19th July. 

Reclaim the Void is a bold, cross-cultural project about the 'gaping mining holes left all over country'. It will result in a huge dot-artwork made up of thousands of handmade circular rag-rugs woven from discarded fabric. 

Bayley artists have already started to make rugs, and we are inviting the community to help us continue and complete 'in progress' rugs to contribute to the project! Once completed, the rugs will be sent to Reclaim the Void in Perth. 

WHAT IS INCLUDED

• A fun, social community environment
• Learn how to weave a spoke based woven rug with your own discarded fabric (please bring an old, plain coloured bedsheet)
• Facilitator support
• Tea and coffee 

For ages 7yrs and over. Persons under12yrs must be accompanied by an adult. This is a great workshop for families looking for a fun activity during the school holidays. 

Cost (this will help cover postage fee)
$10 
$15 Family
