Art Weaving Exhibitions and Workshops

"Pollarded Tree at Dusk" by Jackie Bennett

Hello! I hope the New Year is going well for you so far

I'm enjoying the beauty of winter trees and wildlife - mainly through my studio windows - whilst completing a commission for the Horniman Museum, in South London. So I've been a bit quieter for a while but there's plenty coming up : 

My Art Weaving Workshop in Brighton, is running again on 7th March. Details here.

I'll be participating in "Efflorescence", an exhibition with Sussex Contemporary at BN9 Gallery, in Newhaven, 7th-28th February


My work is also in "Picking Up The Thread", an international touring exhibition, currently in Edinburgh. See here
 


Further details of these events are below.
Please let me know if you are interested in classes for yourself or your group. I'd love to connect with you. Remember that I also teach online. Further details here.

I hope to see you soon. 
Warmest wishes, Jackie
Art Textile Weaving Workshop


7th March 2026, at Brighton Buddhist Centre, 10.30 - 4.30pm 

Learn to weave on a simple wooden frame loom. Choose from a range of colourful yarns and enjoy the tactile and absorbing weaving experience. We will create a little woven piece - that could be a table mat or for the wall.

You will be guided to select colours and textures to design your own unique woven piece. Learn how to attach the warp to your frame and some simple weaving techniques.

Become absorbed in the calming weaving process.
No weaving experience required. If you have done some weaving before, you might wish to refresh your knowledge or try some different techniques.

All materials and instructions will be provided.
Frames will be available to buy if you wish to take one home.

Maybe you have an idea in mind and would like some help to get started. Or you are a beginner wishing to try weaving for the first time. I offer fun workshops, and tutorials, in-person or online. This can be one-to-one or you may join with a small group.


I also offer bespoke workshops online, at my home, or elsewhere for larger groups.
