Polish Paper Cutting workshop with Alexandra Lunn Studio

Come and join us at Boston Manor House for a workshop filled with fun, creativity and culture!

Think florals and rural scenes—all cut by hand using simple scissors and plenty of imagination. This in-person event will showcase the art of Polish paper cutting (wycinanki), inspired by Boston Manor House's current community exhibition My Country is My Home: The Polish Community in the United Kingdom.
In this relaxed session, you’ll learn about the history behind the craft, the tools and techniques used, and why so much of it is inspired by nature. Then, you’ll create your own piece to take home. Try your hand at intricate designs inspired by the seasons and Boston Manor House's interiors as you immerse yourself in the world of paper art. Whether you're a seasoned crafter or a curious beginner, this event is perfect for anyone with a passion for creativity and an interest in Polish culture.

Led by Alexandra Lunn, founder of Well Crafted, who first learnt the art of wycinanki from her Babcia (Polish grandmother) and during her travels across rural Poland.

Suitable for all ages. Please note all children must be accompanied by an adult.
