Come and make some fabulous feathers from fabric.
Taking traditional costume from indigenous peoples such as Maori and rainforest peoples as our starting point, create fabric feathers using a range of techniques such as cutting, painting, appliqué, collage and stitching. Use your feathers to create a costume piece such as a feather headband, arm piece or necklace. You will leave the workshop with your own feathered creation to wear!
