Volunteer Opportunity
The 'Knit One Pass It On' project aims to teach secondary school art students the skills of knitting. Many young people have missed out on the opportunity to learn these traditional crafts so this project aims to open up this opportunity to them.
Elizabeth and members of the Knitty Gritty group have been invited to work with Holy Family RC and CE College in Heywood, to create knitted sea pieces to add to the sculpture. The art teacher Emma Dolan has selected pupils especially for the project and we will be working in small groups to make the skill sharing more accommodating for everyone.
The first workshop will take place at the school in Heywood. A coach will provide transport from Touchstones Rochdale to the school for volunteers and I will meet people at Touchstones Reception.
Refreshments will be provided at the school.
Monday 26th April 2010
Coach will collect people at Touchstones Rochdale at 1.30pm
We will return from Holy Family School to Touchstones Rochdale at 4.20pm
I hope you are able to take part in the project and look forward to seeing you in the future!
