Sewing Symbols of Resistance: Banner Making Workshop with Alice Gabb

Join artist and activist Alice Gabb for a workshop exploring the radical history of banner making. From peace campaigning to trade unions, Alice will provide examples that have inspired and shaped her own practice, exploring the visual culture of social movements and resistance. 

Alice will guide you through banner construction and how to choose appropriate materials as you create your own banner. Through hand stitching and techniques such as applique and embroidery, you’ll sew a symbol that speaks to us about freedom, peace, liberation and resistance. 

30 cm x 40cm long banners will be provided. Basic hand sewing skills are helpful but not required.
