Stitching Time: People's Pavilion at William Morris Gallery

Join RIBA Learning for an afternoon of sewing and chat inspired by the unique surroundings of the People's Pavillion. Come along to meet new people or chat to an old friend, while you stitch some shapes, words, patterns or draw with thread. The fabric will evolve to represent the contributors and conversations that unfold.

For all ages, under 18’s must be accompanied by an adult. Booking is advised.

Stitching Time is a travelling project that will visit several venues over the 3-year refurbishment of the RIBA’s HQ building. RIBA Learning will ‘take the sew on the road’ to engage with the public and build a community of stitchers and contributors.
