Local textile artist, Nawal Gebreel, hosted a workshop with The Avenue in Belle Vale. The group used silk painting and printing techniques to make wall based artworks and scarves.
“The participants enjoyed the workshop, were enthusiastic to take part and wanted to be there. The work that they produced at the workshop gave them confidence to believe in themselves. The atmosphere was very friendly and happy. They even asked Anne, the Project leader if I could come again for another workshop.”
