Welcome to Create & Learn

 

The first Create & Learn was a month-long program held in May 2018 with 12 artists of different skills. We are excited to re-launch this program in 2023 with a bit of a different approach! 

 

There will be 4 two-week events in 2023, a total of 20 artists with 5 artists showcased at each event. Event 1 (Feb 22-Mar 8): Knitting part 1, Paper quilling, Fabric fusion, Glass art, and Indigo dye. Event 2 (Apr 12-26): Saba Lace, Knitting part 2, Card making, Basket weaving, and Stained glass. Event 3 (Jun 18-Jul 2): Sewing, Leather creations, Make your own Espadrilles, Macrame: crafted by nature, and Pottery part 1. Event 4 (Aug 24-Sep 7): Pottery part 2, Knife sheaths, Pyrography, Silver clay, and Painting.

The registration fee confirms your spot at a workshop and supports the artist. Each workshop ensures you will bring home your own hand-crafted product.

Enhance your creative potential!

​

Whether you hope to learn a new artform or improve a technique or just get together with like-minded people, look forward to four fun, creative events!

​

Many crafts traditional to Saba have been incorporated into the program. We hope to be able to link other art forms to traditional Saban practices as well. The artists will also work with Saba's youth, elderly and disadvantaged adults. Our goal is to inspire a new generation of creativity while reinforcing the values of traditional craftsmanship and art forms.
