Coil basketry with sea plastic - New Brewery Arts Cotswolds Gloucestershire

About the Course

An exciting workshop exploring waste plastic materials that have been collected from beaches, looking at ways to reuse them and create a new and beautiful object using coil basketry techniques.
You will learn the basic process of coil basketry and at least one of the stitches that can be used in this process. Using waste fishing materials and these new found skills you will create either a small bowl or matt.

You can turn any of our courses into a short break by staying in our on site accommodation. When you book a residential package you will get discounted accommodation in our stylish boutique hostel located in the centre of Cirencester in the Cotswolds right next door to New Brewery Arts. Our former 19th Century Cotswold stone brewery barrel store has been beautifully transformed into 21st century accommodation, light and well-appointed with a craftsman’s attention to detail. We offer guest accommodation for up to 43 people over two floors in 14 rooms, with a choice of single, bunk, family and double bedrooms, 12 with en-suite facilities. A ground floor disabled-friendly room is also available. The hostel provides a stylish communal dining and relaxation area, self-catering kitchen, laundry facilities and lockers for your bike. As with all our courses and workshops these are led by experienced tutors and as you will be part of a small group there is plenty of time to focus on you.
