Enclave Makes - Impressions of Acton: Indian Blockprint Workshop

Join artist Neera Sehgal in the Co-Working space for an Indian Blockprint Tea Towel Workshop that celebrates creativity, community, and collaboration.

Rooted in the traditional craft of block printing—where many hands come together to create something beautiful—this session reflects the vibrant diversity of Acton itself. Using bright coloured inks and hand-carved blocks inspired by nature, home, and local architecture, participants will design their own unique tea towel (that may also be displayed as a deocrative wallhanging) that they may take home with them, blending personal expression with a shared creative experience

All tickets - both residents and guests - should be registered for under the name and details of the individual attending.
