Working with Hastings Contemporary Art Gallery, I ran adult workshops in Cyanotypes and Japanese Bookbinding over the summer of 2023. The caynotype workshops began with a walk around the seafront to gather interesting materials for the staudents creations, of which there were many in the fishing hub of the town.

For the second series of adult workshops, I taught 'An introduction to Japanese Bookbinding' which was extremely popular with the locals and beyond. These workshops began with the four-stitch technique where students made two books each to take home with them.
