Off A Sheep's Back
Wool is an incredible and versatile material. In addition to making art, textiles and carpets, another of the many uses of wool is under-sea invasive weed suppression, the natural wool being an environmentally sustainable alternative to plastics.
This collection reflects the diversity of natural wool using a range of “painting” and sculptural techniques.
Through Off A Sheep’s Back you will observe how the artist uses the natural properties of wool to create abstract and beautiful landscapes and whimsical creatures. The artist describes wool as a medium that is absorbing and joy to work with.
Free Events:
Felting Demonstrations
Saturdays 23 & 30 March and 6 April
10am - 11am
Join Lyn Wardlaw in the Community Gallery to see how the artist uses wool fibres to create art.
Booking is not required.

Time for a clear-out?
Delve back into that garage or wardrobe! It's time to sell your gently-loved goods at The Neighbourly Winter (online!) Garage Sale
On Saturday 6th July, members will be online checking out the goods on offer so it's a great time to get rid of your winter clutter.
Maybe it's time to realise that you're never going to use that snowboard or ski jacket, and that you really do have one too many heaters. Whatever it is, take a picture and put it on Neighbourly for locals to see.
