A Bayeux Tapestry-inspired craft workshop led by artist Lendita, celebrating the tapestry's display at the British Museum.
Yorkshire Museum is hosting a Bayeux Tapestry-inspired craft session on Sunday 20 September, run by artist Lendita. It's a drop-in, so you can turn up whenever suits you between 10:30am and 3:30pm, rather than committing to a fixed slot. The session is part of a wider programme of Bayeux Tapestry events at the museum, and it's included in general admission.
The workshop is tied to a special display of the tapestry at the British Museum, one of the Yorkshire Museum's partners. The broader programme looks at York's own connection to the Norman Conquest and the 1066 Bishophill Hoard, so there's a bit more to this than just a single day of making. One of the highlights of the wider run is that visitors get to handle a genuine coin from the period, taken from the museum's own collection.
