Saturday 28 January - Scrap Rug Weaving
Join Rumpus room and artist Adris Ardis Önnerfors for a scrap rug weaving workshop.
Inspired by farm keepers in Adri’s home countries of Scandinavia, we will learn techniques and create a communal folk art scrap-rug from textile waste and old clothes, weaving an artwork together that is functional and fun.

Sunday 29 January - Scarecrow Making 
Together we will make small scarecrow children for your front garden, window, veg patch or bedroom, using natural products (hay, jute and straw ) and recycled clothing. Learn to make scarecrows similar to those found in farmers' fields, and seen in folk traditions across the globe.
