Everyone is welcome to our workshops
Friday 13 June 2025

With Val Hughes
This workshop gives a brief introduction to the fascinating art of wire sculpture. All participants will learn how to bend and bind wire with the outcome of making a small wire bird.
As some dexterity is needed - the wire can be a bit fiddly - please note this workshop is not really suitable for those who have limited movement in their fingers.
Materials Required
Barber Rooms, All Saints’ Church, Faringdon SN7 8AD
