'Common Threads' Community Coffee Morning at BAC (Heritage Open Days)
Join us for a relaxed morning of craft and conversation at Battersea Arts Centre and find out about Common Threads, our textile inspired community arts programme.
Meet our growing creative community of local and global artists, research volunteers and community champions who will be sharing their personal connections with the textile collection at 575 Wandsworth Road. Learn how to finger knit and help shape our upcoming collective craft project exploring the connecting power of craft.
'Common Threads' is a year-long community arts programme drawing inspiration from the rich tapestry of textiles at 575 Wandsworth Road, showcasing the diverse cultural narratives woven into fabrics and delving into the cultural significance of this collection - celebrating the histories, techniques, ideas, and people connected with them and reflecting on how they continue to influence our lives today.
This coffee morning is aimed primarily at Wandsworth and Lambeth residents to foster social connections and inspire creativity at every age.
Please note:
- Please meet in the foyer at Battersea Arts Centre, Lavender Hill, London SW11 5TN. The workshop will be based in a room called Elm House ground floor.
- Battersea Arts Centre is an accessible venue with level access, accessible toilets. Please get in touch if you have any additional access needs.
