You will learn about the meaning and symbolism of the ritual and be guided through the process to make your own Brigid’s cross to take away.The Brigid’s cross tradition involves weaving crosses from rushes or straw on St. Brigid's Eve (January 31st) to hang in homes for protection against fire, evil, and illness, linking pre-Christian Celtic traditions with St. Brigid's legacy as a symbol of home, hearth, and fertility.These crosses, often four-armed with a woven centre, are placed above doorways and left until the next year, with variations existing across Irish regions, symbolising renewal and welcoming spring, aligning with the festival of Imbolc. Crafting a Brigid's Cross remains a popular way to honour Irish heritage and connect with themes of protection and renewal.? Free sessions☕ Light refreshments?

                "description": "ABOUT THE AUXILIARY\r\nGALLERY // STUDIOS // WORKSHOP // TOOL LIBRARY // RESIDENCY // FESTIVALS\r\nThe Auxiliary Project Space (Estb. 2016) started life as a raw, malleable live/work space in Stockton-on-Tees. Inviting artists into the home of directors Anna Byrne & Liam Slevin, the idea was to reimagine and reconfigure the space around their needs; from workspace to gallery, meeting point to studio. The Auxiliary grew and expanded, delivering festivals and performance series across the Tees Valley such as FEED (2016-Present) Middlesbrough Art Weekender (2017, 2018 & 2019) Brick Day 2017, Stockton Contemporary 2018 and Sonic Arts Week 2019. Upcommiing festvals include Middlesbrough Art Weekender 2020, Sonic Arts Week 2020 & Stockton Contemporary 2020. \r\nIn 2019, The Auxiliary expanded to include a 10,000 sqft. warehouse space in Middlesbrough. Consisting of two galleries, 12 studios and workshop/performance space, The Auxiliary Warehouse launched on the 24th May, 2019.\r\nCuratorially, The Auxiliary is a site for the production of experimental & sound art practices. It encourages & promotes the sonic arts through investigating the rich local industrial heritage and reimagines the Tees Valley as a site for invigorated, creative industries."
