Objects of vanity (Clothing workshop)

With Robyn Carlson

The pocket seems like such a simple and humble feature. A hidden, yet secure place within one’s clothing to conveniently hold and keep items with you as you go about your daily life.

In the 17th century people often shared a bedroom and furniture, a pocket was the only private and safe place to store small personal possessions. You will make a small purse or reticule.

More activities:

There will be demonstrations that will aim to enthuse the participants and encourage them to open their minds to the endless possibilities available with Lifelong Learning – for both professional and personal development.
The open evening and workshops will be held at the Lifelong Learning Centre, Milford Haven Building, Gogerddan Campus, Aberystwyth on 9th September, 4pm to 6.30pm
