Join us at GCDA's community venue Woolwich Front Room and try your hand at decorative doll making in this fantastic free workshop led by London based artist Tanaz Assefi.
FUN WITH FASHION AND EXCITING CULTURAL EXCHANGE!
Sat 16th Dec 10.30-1.30 Woolwich Front Room, 105 Powis Street, SE18 6JB
Using simple household materials and an exciting mix of African and European textiles, Tanaz will draw on a centuries' old tradition from her native Iran in which mothers would gift their daughters a simple handmade doll on their wedding day. Each doll, carried a paper scroll on its back containing the story of its maker and was seen as a symbolic 'friend' for the daughter as she headed off into her new life.
