Created in collaboration with Farnham Craft Quarter CIC, this vibrant exhibition will showcase the works of 24 young people involved in a National Lottery Heritage Funded project, 11 Plus Craft.

Participants aged 11-16 were guided in after school activities to learn the heritage crafts of weaving and printing - making wooden looms, dyeing yarns, and block printing using colour derived from plants.

The project also included funds to plant a dye garden in our museum garden, which will give the gift of natural colour to yarn and textiles for community groups to explore in years to come.
