About the event
FREE BATIK COURSE FOR COUNTY DURHAM RESIDENTS
We are delighted to release the latest instalment of our creative courses for County Durham residents. Our courses have been designed to develop creativity, improve wellbeing, advance functional skills and provide people with an opportunity to take part in a range of highly sought-after courses including home fragrances, batik, ceramics and fused glass.
Batik is an ancient Indonesian art form using fabrics, waxes and rich coloured dyes to create beautiful fabric art works. Come and learn how to create your own stunning designs and motifs, then transfer them to fabric and begin this ancient process. You will use hot waxes, dyes and resist techniques to create bright, colourful works of fabric art to be proud of. On the course you can choose whether you'd like to make a fabric wall hanging, handmade cushion covers or your own bespoke piece. Let your creative flair take over and draw inspiration from the beauty of nature and use these influences to create truly unique and bespoke designs.
Important information
Our courses are one of a kind, which makes them very cost intensive, therefore we are looking for people who are completely committed to taking part and fulfilling all of the course requirements. You will need to attend your course each week and must be prepared to complete all aspects of the course. The knowledge and experiences created on these courses really do speak for themselves and we are keen to recruit the right learners, who will have the opportunity to engage in learning something new and become inspired by their new passion.
Our batik course will take place at Horden Youth & Community Centre in Horden, Peterlee. The course will start on Wednesday 6th March and run for four consecutive Wednesday's. Sessions will run from 9:30am-4pm.
