Cooeee Sistas Art Workshops is excited to present local Aboriginal artist Debbs Robinson, a traditional and contemporary weaver, in three fun filled Random Weaving hours making a bowl, platter or sculpture. Don’t sit around the house having a very ordinary day! Grab this opportunity to have some time out enjoying yourself. Come and join the Intriguing Random Weaving Workshop using just what is laying around our backyards! So much to choose from. They've got an abundance of organics material for you to play with! They have locally harvested flexible fruit branches, Lomandra, various other strong grasses, bulrushes (cumbungi), strappy Watsonia leaves, aged passionfruit and grape vines, day lilies, cordyline, palm sheaths and palm inflorescence! Random basket weaving is a mindful, joyous creative play journey that has no bounds! You will learn about foraging for organic materials, what works and what doesn’t, harvesting, drying materials, how to establish and structure your basket, bowl or platter, different styles of weaving and techniques and how to decorate your finished masterpieces. A scrumptious afternoon tea will be provided to tickle your taste buds. All materials are supplied but you are welcome to bring weaving materials you may have at home to make your weave personal to you. You deserve some time out and it's just way too much fun to miss out on!
