I’m very pleased to have been asked to deliver a spoon carving workshop as part of the Dab Hands exhibition at Manchester Museum. This is a two-year project exploring our relationship with our hands through creative approaches, especially for those whose dexterity has been deeply affected by disease, trauma and medical intervention. It features the work and wooden spoon collection of Barry Bate who I knew and who sadly passed away from cancer in 2021. It will be a real honour to pass on some of the skills he loved during the workshop.
The workshop takes place on Wed 3rd May 2023, book your place via eventbrite: Dab Hands Spoon CarvingÂ
