Tataki-Zome

Join us at the St Mungo Museum of Religious Life & Art for a free, family-friendly arts and crafts activity on Saturday 28th March and Sunday 29th March!

As they say, weeds are just plants in the wrong place — so join us in celebrating National W**d Appreciation Day. We’ll be making fragrant herb bags and trying out the Japanese art of Tataki-Zome, bashing flowers and leaves to create unique, detailed prints on fabric. This creative drop-in session is suitable for all ages and offers a fun way to explore nature, texture, and pattern through hands-on making.

Everyone is welcome, come along and get crafty with us!
