Jaywick Martello Tower: Summer Workshops
Join us at Jaywick Martello Tower for a summer of crafting!
During the school holidays we will be hosting a series of drop-in family workshops to keep the kids entertained.
Artist Clare Sams will be joining us for the workshop on Saturday 29 July for a collaborative coastal themed weave, creating woven strips representing the beach, sea and sky using recycled materials.
And on Saturday 12 August artist Nicola Burrell will be here to show us how to make cardboard sculpture eco systems.
