About this event

ARTchive - Seafaring pocket journal workshop with Vicki Aimers.

Join us for our first ARTchive of 2023! It’s time to set sail with book artist, Vicki Aimers, on a journey to create a mixed media pocket journal – inspired by our current exhibition ‘Wrecks and Rescues’, stories of sea adventures and memories of days spent by the coast.

Together we’ll explore narrative stitch, collage and print, as well as playing with words in a creative writing exercise to get your ideas flowing.

The workshop costs £15 and there are limited spaces, so booking is essential.
To book call 01209 614430 during our opening hours (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday 9.30am-4pm), or pop in.

Tea, coffee and biscuits will be provided but please bring your own lunch (the Kresen Kernow café will not be open).

If possible, please bring the following items for the workshop:

pre-loved fabrics such as cotton shirts or dresses in colours of your choice
a few skeins of embroidery thread in colours of your choice
old books or photographs of maritime themed images for collaging
family photos of days by the sea that can be collaged
buttons to decorate your journal
old brooches or costume jewellery to add to your journal pages
maps or sea charts you may have for collaging
a sewing kit, including scissors, needles and pins etc.
