MODERN TALISMAN - A workshop led by artist and maker Sai-Wai Foo where participants will explore wearable objects inspired by donated and waste materials. These accessories, while decorative, will also imbue the wearer with empowerment and joy.

Saturday, April 29 from 10 am-12 pm in The Social Studio Workshop at Collingwood Yards

Participants will also be adding their own personal touch to a wearable artwork that Sai-Wai is constructing, to be shown at the CROSS-STITCH workshop series exhibition in August 2023 at Schoolhouse Studios.

Spaces are limited; sign up for this free workshop HERE Materials and light refreshments are provided. Suitable for all skill levels.

Cross-Stitch by The Social Studio highlights the contemporary value of traditional hand-making skills across cultures and traditions, bringing artists and participants together to share knowledge and stories. If you're a community member with a hidden craft skill, get in touch! We are particularly interested in celebrating the talents of creatives from refugee and migrant backgrounds.⁠
