About this event
Explore the exciting world of fashion and textiles in this one-day course designed for 14-17 year olds who want to develop new creative skills and investigate sustainable approaches to fashion.
Based in our professional-standard textile studios, you’ll build technical skills in screen printing, garment alteration, patch making and upcycling. You’ll learn about resourceful approaches to fashion and textiles, push your creative boundaries and add experience to your portfolio for further study. By the end of the day you’ll leave with a finished, wearable piece that showcases your creativity and new expertise.
On this course, you will:
Design and produce custom textile patches using sustainable materials.
Apply alteration and screen printing techniques to create a personalised, wearable T-shirt.
Rework T-Shirts into stylish, upcycled pieces of wearable art that demonstrate creative problem-solving and sustainable design practices.
At the end of the day, you’ll leave with practical skills in sustainable fashion and textile design, including:
Garment alteration
Screen printing
Patch-making
Upcycling
You’ll be taught by our experienced Falmouth University staff. All staff teaching this course are DBS cleared and have undergone our mandatory safeguarding training. Students will be supervised through the day including break times.
