In this two-day practical workshop, you will learn the basics of creating three-dimensional shapes in willow. Create a willow structure, cover it with lantern paper, and decorate it, creating your own animal sculpture to take away.
Willow is a versatile, lightweight medium, ideal for sculpture, modelmaking, prop making, theatre sets, festivals, parades, lanterns, puppets and community arts and much more.
