About the event

Upcycled Textile Making @ Pitsea Market
This February half-term, we’re inviting everyone to take part in two free, drop-in workshops at Pitsea Market. No booking needed, no experience required — just drop by and join in.

🟡 Friday 20 February – Market Music Making
Make music using the sounds of Pitsea Market — from sizzling frying onions to the calls of stallholders. We’ll turn everyday market sounds into playful music together.
🎧 All equipment provided

🟢 Saturday 21 February – Upcycled Textile Making
Work with reclaimed and donated materials to design and sew your own textile panel. Beginner-friendly, social and relaxed. Every piece becomes part of a larger community tapestry.

Upcycled and Remixed is a new creative project celebrating Pitsea through sound, textiles and community making, led by CLIP Sound and Music CIC in collaboration with textile artist Rachel Jefferson, and supported by Creative Basildon.

Both workshops contribute to a large interactive tapestry that will later become playable — a textile instrument made by the community, for the community.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 All ages welcome
🆓 Free & drop-in
📍 Pitsea Market

✨ Everyone who takes part is invited back for the public unveiling on Saturday 11 April, when the finished artwork will be revealed and opened up to play.
