Intercultural Textile Printing Workshops
Take part in a series of free textile printing workshops for women in Callan,
Thomastown and Ferrybank. The workshops and creative activities will be led by artist Liz Nilsson and explore pattern making and our sense of place.
The workshops are an opportunity for women to learn textile printing skills and create patterns to print onto practical textiles to take home. You will also work together to create a large collaborative printed textile artwork.
