Who Are You? A collaborative textile crafting experience.

FREE drop in activity as part of the Three Counties Open Art 2025 launch event.
Venue: Fenton Town Hall Ballroom
Who Are You?
Join Shiv and Eve in making an abstract map of the people’s identity in the Three Counties through the art of textiles. From embroidery to embellishment, show us who you are and what you’re about with a vast array of materials and the support of our artist team.
Using recycled and scrap materials and a variety of textile techniques the artwork will culminate in an abstract map of the people of the Three Counties showing our diversity - like loose threads weaving together. Prompts and provocations will be available to inspire participants, encouraging conversation about place, space and identity as it occurs to both artist and audience.
We look forward to talking to you about your home, your family, friends, heritage, cultural identity, and more. Suitable for all ages and abilities.
