Wonderful Weaving

Back in July, Broome Youth and Families Hub partnered with the Kimberley Arts Network and Anglicare to run a series of free weaving workshops. Out Family Services Officer Katrina Kelsey ran the sessions over six weeks, with 61 separate individuals participating. The feedback from participants was overwhelmingly positive, including, ‘Best program. I learnt so much and so connected with wonderful women,’ and, ‘Would definitely do again. Such a great workshop. Would love to do more. Katrina is the BEST!!! Instructor,’ and, ‘It was lovely to learn how to create something with my hands and easily accessible materials (plus sustainable).’ Participants enjoyed the social atmosphere, liked the facilitator and learned new skills. A second series rolled out last month.
