Wild About Craft Worskshop series 

Join Gwent Wildlife Trust’s crafty ecologists, Kath and Lowri, to learn a new craft inspired by the Trust’s 10 vulnerable species!  

If you’re looking for inspiration, our friendly and relaxed ‘Wild About Craft’ group will help you try out new skills whilst connecting with nature in the beautiful setting of Magor Marsh Nature Reserve. 

We are hosting multiple workshops throughout the year, exploring different crafts, inspired by each of our 10 vulnerable species. Every session will begin with a short talk (or walk in spring/summer!) to explore the subject matter, before guiding you through fun exercises and onto the final creations. Each session can be enjoyed as a standalone event, but attending multiple workshops will provide a richer experience, allowing you to explore working with different mediums and build a nature journal of observations. 

Workshop 3 – Linocut print an Adder 

The Adder is Britain's only venomous reptile, a title which has unfortunately led to their persecution in the past. More recently, disturbance and deterioration of their habitats has led to declining populations and they are currently believed to be at risk of extinction in as little as a decade.  

We’d like to give this secretive snake the positive attention it deserves, so come along to learn more and study their beautiful camouflaging patterns through the medium of linocut printing!  

Details: Sunday 2nd March 2025, 10:00am – 3:00 pm (with lunch break) 

We will provide photo inspiration, tools, inks and paper, however, if you’d like to build a personal nature journal, please bring along your own mixed-media art book. 

Light refreshments will be provided, but please bring your own packed lunch. 

Please note that this workshop is not run by professional artists, but by staff with a passion for connecting people to wildlife through craft. No previous experience is needed! The cost of the activity covers materials and supports the work of Gwent Wildlife Trust. This activity is only suitable for 16+.
