The curator, James Colman, has laid emphasis particularly on finding new and progressive developments , and where these disciplines crossover into other dimensions and interpretations.

Felt Making
Felt is the oldest textile fabric; people learnt to make it even before they could spin, weave or knit, probably in the Bronze Age. Essentially felt is made today in the same way as over 2000 years ago. In this workshop you will make a number of pieces of felt using traditional methods, which can be made into items to wear or for the home. Please bring at least one old towel.
