# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Shroud Making Workshop
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 14 Mar, 2026 at 12:00 am – Sat, 14 Mar, 2026 at 06:30 am
- **Event Description**: Join artist, Michele Elliot, for a contemplative and practical workshop to explore the tradition of shroud-making. Shrouds have played an important role in caring for the deceased for a very long time. The washing and wrapping of the body is often the last act of care given to a person before they are farewelled. The workshop will consist of supported discussion and reflection around end-of-life care, give attention to grief, to celebration and to ‘going-away’ outfits. Working with natural materials, Michele will guide you through the planning and design of a simple shroud, provide hands-on sewing instruction and practical tips. There will also be a quick dip into printing with flowers and a demonstration of bundle dyeing with natural materials. Whether you wish to make your own shroud or one for a particular person or pet, this workshop is the perfect introduction to create a bespoke cloth with intention and care.

No sewing experience necessary! Basic sewing materials are provided, and participants are invited to bring their own fabric/cloth. More information will be sent upon registration.
