Get Crafty this August at Roe Valley Arts & Cultural Centre

As part of August Craft Month, Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council’s Roe Valley Arts & Cultural Centre, Limavady has two fabulous creative courses lined up to help you learn new skills, get creative and get crafty!  

The award-winning Atlantic Craft NI teach a two part Willow Sculpture course on Saturday 30th July and 6th August from 10am-2pm. Louise McLean of Atlantic Craft will help participants aged 16+ years make their own willow obelisks, dragonflies and more to decorate the garden or garden pots. Based in Portrush, the renowned Atlantic Craft NI participate in international exhibitions and craft showcase events.

On Monday 1st August, another acclaimed North Coast based creative artist, Eleanor-Jane McCartney hosts a Warm Glass masterclass. Running from 2-5pm, Eleanor will help participants design and make their own unique glass artwork to hang in the home, frame or use as decorative coasters. This class is open to all ages and abilities and is a great fun course to do as a group, but young people aged under 16 years must be accompanied by an adult.

Both courses are part of the August Craft Month national craft initiative by Craft NI and are suitable for complete beginners. All materials are provided, all you need is bundles of creative enthusiasm!
