Felt N' Fizz Workshop - Pumpkins

Felt N' Fizz is running a pumpkin-making workshop at York House Centre on Friday 30 October, from 7 pm to 9 pm. It's a two-hour session led by Sadie French, who'll walk you through the basics of dry felting — the process of sculpting wool into shapes without using water — and you'll leave with your own handmade woollen pumpkin to take home. The idea is that by the end of the night you'll feel confident enough to felt pretty much anything you fancy, not just pumpkins.

All the materials and equipment are provided, so you don't need to bring anything with you. There's also a complimentary glass of Prosecco or a soft drink included, and free parking on site. If you're bringing someone under 18, they'll need to be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

The setting has a bit of its own history to it. York House Centre is a three-storey Victorian building dating from around 1860, Grade II listed and run by a Volunteer Board of Trustees as a youth, community and arts centre. It's just a three-minute walk from Stony Stratford town centre, north of Milton Keynes, and hosts a wide range of community workshops and activities throughout the year.

Tickets are £33.22, and the session runs from 7 pm to 9 pm on Friday 30 October, with doors open from 9 am.
