Bat Roost and Basket Weaving Weekend

Yaamagay!

Here you are!

Welcome to another round of bat roost weaving and basketry with Gumbaynggirr Weaver Lilly Clegg at Yarrawarra ☀️

This time we are making a weekend of it! 🌿🌻🦋

Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th August

We’re spending the whole weekend weaving in the winter sunshine and lending a hand to our local golden-tipped bat population

As a part of the Golden Tipped Bat Roost Weaving Project we learn to identify and process local weaving fibres, try our hand at recreating woven roosts to meet their adorable batty housing specifications and also try our hand at a twine weave basket 😁

This is a FREE community event 😋👍

though you must register

and also catered with nutritious wholesome tucka 🌈

so let us know if you have any food requirements at gallery@ Yarrawarra.com.au

There’s also plenty of space to camp out if you would like to stay the night, pitch a tent or roll a swag out by the fire if the weather is good 🔥 breakfast and dinner is BYO

We’ll be weaving out the back of the gallery in the outdoor undercover workshop space and there’ll be tea and coffee available

Feel free to bring some fibres from home to experiment with 🌿 The bats like fine hairlike roots and fine fibres for warmth So if you have roots or horse hair, please bring some 👍
