Opportunity overview
Working in partnership with Newry & Mourne Museum, this project aims to bring together community members of all ages to explore the history, craft, and contemporary relevance of whitework. Through talks, demonstrations, heritage site visits, hands-on stitching sessions, and shared storytelling, participants will gain insight into the lives of the embroiderers who came before them. The project will also support participants to develop their own technical skills, culminating in a collaborative embroidery piece that reflects both historical influences and personal narratives. Ultimately, the programme seeks to increase awareness and appreciation of whitework and flowering in the Mournes, highlight the historical role of women in local textile industries, and provide 15 hours of meaningful engagement for a minimum of 20 participants.
