About the event
Free workshops from Connecting Threads with Norham Arts!
Learn how to make a spectacular 3D concertina sketchbook at a creative workshop led by illustrator Jane Porter.
You’ll use folded paper to create your own fantasy version of the River Tweed, then embellish it with ink, collage, rubber stamps, curled paper and ribbon.
The session is inspired by the Connecting Threads theme of ‘Under, over, round and through’, playfully exploring how the river moves and what it sees on its journey from the source to the sea at Berwick-upon-Tweed.
This is a hands-on workshop for all ages from six and up; children must be accompanied by adults. The workshop is suitable for family groups as well as adults without children.
Wearing old clothes is recommended if you would like to use ink!
