Play with words and make something colourful in this hands-on workshop combining the best of Morag’s love for language and Pauline’s craft skills. Participants will design and create their own “chatterboxes” playful, foldable creations that celebrate text, colour, and pattern.

Guided by Pauline’s expert teaching, you’ll explore simple crafting techniques while experimenting with bold colours, shapes, and letterforms inspired by Morag’s love for language. Each chatterbox becomes a mini-work of art, brimming with personality, mischief, heartfelt messages or dreams.

Perfect for makers of all levels, this session provides all materials and expert guidance, leaving you with a tactile, interactive creation and a burst of inspiration from two incredible artists.

Your workshop ticket also includes exclusive access to Chasing Sunbeams by Morag Myerscough. What a way to brighten your day.
