Wings & Stitches

Celebrate Aotearoa’s unique nature in this creative hands-on workshop! Kids will learn about and sketch our one-of-a-kind native moths and butterflies before crafting their very own stitched art work. 
 
Using upcycled fabrics and felt, we’ll layer textures and colours to create a beautiful insect patch, complete with beads and stitching to bring it to life. You’ll even use fabrics featuring native host plants, telling the story of how our local wildlife thrives. 
 
Take home your finished masterpiece ready to be ironed or sewn onto a bag or jacket!
