Contemporary Textiles at the Guild

🌱 See Wilmslow in a Whole New Light (literally!)
Join us at the Guild for a mindful, hands-on workshop in Nature-Inspired Handmade Photography.

We are going back to basics, moving away from screens and reconnecting with our local environment.

What to expect from your day 🥾:

1️⃣ Foraging the Common: We’ll start with a walk on Lindow Common, gathering botanical inspiration and materials directly from the landscape.
2️⃣ Slow-Paced Artistry: Discover the magic of Alternative Processes, including Cyanotypes and sustainable Anthotypes (using sunlight and plant solutions!).
3️⃣ Mindful Creation: A tactile, slow-paced day dedicated to mindful experimentation and connecting with like-minded locals.

No photography experience is needed—just bring your curiosity and your boots! It’s sustainable, eco-friendly, and a wonderful way to embrace the seasons.☀️

📅 When: Saturday, 25th April | 10am - 4pm
📍 Where: , Wilmslow
🎨 Tutor: Laura Harvey
