Art in Nature Workshops with Elaine Foster-Gandey
Creativity inspired by the wild beauty of Cornwall

Join international arts educator Elaine Foster-Gandey for a series of engaging and hands-on art workshops at Botelet Farm, a hidden gem in rural Cornwall, lovingly nurtured by the Tamblyn family for over 150 years.

Nestled upstream from Fowey, this idyllic setting provides the perfect backdrop for art-making workshops that celebrate nature and sustainability. Participants will explore:

• Mask Making from Nature – Create unique masks using organic and found materials.

• Weaving in Nature – Experiment with natural plant materials and create exciting woven sculptures.

• Beginners Sewing with Up-cycled Materials – Learn simple hand stitching techniques & make a simple tote bag out of repurposed fabrics.

These family-friendly workshops run from 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM, offering a morning of creativity and inspiration. Please note that children must be supervised at all times.
