Saturday 15 June
10am-3pm
Learn how to build with the earth! Explore the traditional technique of wattle and daub, in a workshop led by natural builder Becky Little (Rebearth).
Over the course of the day, participants will learn principles of building with clay and fibre, including density, structure and durability. We will experiment with soils, aggregates and fibres, and get practical experience in mixing, placing and daubing a willow structure.
We welcome people of all building abilities, beginners as well as experienced practitioners, and anyone interested in learning about sustainable construction.
Mixture & Mingling is organised as part of the creation of The Sentient Garden, a multisensory microcosm within the wider garden environment at Forgan Arts Centre.
What to bring
Most of the workshop will take place outside, so participants should wear sturdy footwear and prepare for the weather, rain or shine! Hot drinks, cold drinks and picnic snacks provided; you are welcome to bring along lunch or something to share. The event will be relaxed, with some elements accessible to wheelchair users and there will be seating available.
