willow in the wood
Our woodland art space is nestled within the woodland beyond the lake on the Birtley Estate in Bramley, a beautiful Surrey Hills location, so picturesque with its lakes and gardens and woodland walks and not surprisingly it is classified as an "AONB" an area of outstanding natural beauty!
​
Join Lorraine for a half-day or full-day, outdoor craft workshop and learn to weave with Willow to create an Art piece, a Sculpture you can be proud of!
