Lacemaking Workshop at the Rare Trades Centre

Learn the art of lacemaking with Lindy de Wijn and Helen Crabb from the Victorian Branch of the Australian Lace Guild.

In this two-day workshop, learn to make both bobbin lace and needle lace by spending a full day working in each technique.

Complete a sampler in each technique inspired by a Chinese processional costume from the Australian Centre for Gold Rush Collections which you will have the opportunity to view during the workshop.

Held at Ballarat’s Australian Centre for Rare Arts and Forgotten Trades, a world-class facility dedicated to learning and preserving Australia’s rare arts and trades through a series of workshops, masterclasses, events, and residencies.
