In this paper weaving class we will explore colour theory and experiment
with different ways of applying colour to paper before weaving these
sheets together. We will learn about different weaves used in loom
weaving and apply these weaves to our paper weaving as well as
experimenting with op art and random weaving techniques and adding
texture by incorporating different material elements. At the end of the
course we can apply these techniques to a small woven vessel. 

Artspace’s Adult Education funded ‘Distance Learning’ programme has
been designed to enable safe home learning during the Covid-19
pandemic. Distance Learning programmes are 6 weeks long, and are
delivered to groups of people in care homes, or, to individuals living
in different households. Artspace send a package of materials directly
to the home/care-home of the learner, which includes everything they
will require in order to participate. The learner will participate in a
weekly zoom workshop with a tutor/support worker and can receive
support and feedback via zoom, telephone and/or email.
Cost: Courses are free for people with disabilities or with fewer than 5 GCSEs, or £30.
