Coat of Hopes - Embroidery Workshop

£0.00

Thursday 3 July

5pm

Your story too can become a part of a bigger journey. Join us for this free workshop with artist Deborah Crofts where you’ll embroider an object that symbolises your personal story into the great patchwork of the Coat of Hopes.

The Coat of Hopes is a patchwork coat on an ongoing walking pilgrimage through the UK towards the end of the climate and ecological emergency.

It has been made by and worn and walked by many hundreds of people on a journey on foot of around 1500 miles so far. It carries people's hopes for the places they live, sewn into the blanket patches of which it is made.

In July, the Coat of Hopes is coming to Folkestone and we’re celebrating it with a series of workshops and gatherings where you can share your stories, wear the Coat, and embroider an object into its patchwork.

This is a free workshop, but you need to bring your object. It can be absolutely anything.

Registration necessary.
