If we aim to achieve a harmonious culture rich in contrasting values, we must recognise the whole spectrum of human potentialities, and so weave a less arbitrary social fabric, one in which each diverse human gift will find a fitting place. Musing over the tapestry of life, it’s wefts and warps, this evening at Paradise Palms.

This Sunday, Primitive Painters: Repeat Pleasure - lino printing workshop. Repeat Pleasure explores the many methods of creating artists multiples and lino or relief printing is one of the most accessible and satisfying techniques for beginners. The process of carving a design into lino also makes for a relaxing afternoons art session.

And Monday, Primitive Painters: Daydream Beweaver - loom weaving. Muse over the tapestry of life, it’s wefts and warps - while creating your own fabric wall hanging as Primitive Painters set you up on an individual mini loom and guide you in the basics of weaving. This repetitive and meditative practice makes for a relaxing evening, leave a little lighter, harboring a new skill and unique craft piece.
