Join artist Andy Hopton and learn how to make small wire trinkets. In years gone by, sailors would have made similar objects using wire and other material to while away the hours onboard ship. Andy will guide you through the process of manipulating wire to make the maritime shapes, with alternative materials available for younger children.
