The Craft Exchange
Wednesday, December 18, 2024
Have you ever wished you could knit, sew, embroider, quilt, darn or learn any of those practical crafts that others seem able to do? We gather highly skilled crafters who love to share their skills with keen learners.
Join us for The Craft Exchange. If you’ve not joined a session before please reach out to Maggi Livingstone, via maggi@hypatia-trust.org.uk, to book your place - either as an expert crafter or new skill learner.
The session runs from 1.30pm - 3pm, and will continue every 3rd Wednesday of the month.
WHAT’S ON
@ THE HYPATIA TRUST
Change Through Art
An Exhibition of work from local campaign groups
Wednesday 11th - Wednesday 18th December,
11am-5pm
The Hypatia Trust, Chapel Street
In the South West of Cornwall there is a long tradition of the women in the local area using their creative skills to raise awareness of manmade events which are having a negative effect on the lives of the community both here and further afield.
This month, at Hypatia HQ, we will be exhibiting samples of work from local campaign groups who are hoping to or who have begun to bring about change.
For example, Sustainable Penzance, who aim to encourage the local community to get out into the green spaces in and around Penzance, have produced a beautifully detailed user friendly map of all the green spaces which can be walked in Penzance.
There will also be some examples of the need for change which involve raising awareness and encouraging others to get involved.
This exhibition is designed to be inspirational for others to bring their creativity to important topics, encouraging positive and thoughtful action.
