Handmade Craft Workshops
These workshops are Age Friendly Whitworth's core offer. Get ready for sociable artist-facilitated craft workshops for adults aged 50+.
These workshops are free and take place on a Friday in our garden studio during term time. You must book on a week-by-week basis. The workshops are facilitated by artists and inspired by the exhibitions and collections.
Each session runs from 2pm-4pm, please book your space in advance via email. Bookings will be taken on the Monday of the week you wish to attend.
