Join Tett Artist-in-Residence Jarena Lee for a playful, hands-on workshop exploring portrait-making through textiles and fabric.

In this session, participants will create their own unique textile portraits using a mix of materials, including scrap fabrics brought from home and materials provided in the workshop. Participants are also invited to take part in a fabric swap — exchanging textures, colours, and materials with others to bring new stories and layers into their work.

This is a fun, collaborative workshop that encourages experimentation, resourcefulness, and personal expression through fabric and textile-based making.
