JOIN US FOR A RELAXED SIT AND SEW SESSION - Just pop in for a few minutes or a few hours on Wednesdays.

Instead of tiles, glasses and broken china with gold, we have used colourful plastic bottle tops, threads and old shower curtains. We developed our own version of a community mosaic art project by inviting local residents to help us bring the pieces together.

We found a way to redefine what wholeness looks like and made something beautiful out of rubbish. Just as a mosaic is made up of many individual tiles, each plastic bottle, each stitch, is unique and contributed to the overall picture. It built on the idea that in embracing flaws and imperfections, you can create an even stronger, more beautiful piece of art.

No skill or prior knowledge. No need to ‘get it right’. No need for perfection. It’s like colouring in with things instead of pens! Look at the back of the Pavilion if you want to see what we’ve done so far!
