William Morris Gallery Teachers' Course

                      Teaching Weaving & Constructed Textiles

Saturday 12 July 2014 10.00 -13.30, £40.00 pre person.

For both secondary Art & Design/Design & Technology teachers and primary art co-ordinators

 A chance to share practice, learn new skills and refresh old ones inspired by the gallery displays.

Tutor: Carolyn Abbott, textile artist, with additional input and school case studies from Rezia Halima Wahid, weaver and textiles teacher at Frederick Bremer School.

This hands-on course will look at how the traditional hand crafts of weaving and tapestry can be relevant and integrated into art and textiles curricula; how it can be done at many levels from basic work on a small card loom to large group construction on wooden frames using recycled materials - with lots of practical ideas to take away and new online weaving resources. The course will look at how William Morris and contemporary artists reference and use weaving.
