Saturday 20 December, 2025
11:30am-2:30pm (6x 25 minute sessions)
Bookings are required
Book in for a session with exhibiting artist Jessica Covell and learn how to tuft! Participants will learn how to safely operate a tufting gun, and contribute to a collaborative tufted rug under Jessica’s expert guidance.
Please note:
Each session is 25 minutes long. The session will begin with a safety briefing and an introduction to the craft, followed by guided hands-on time.
Tufting guns are light machinery and operating them is a physical task! For this reason, active participants must be 12 years or older. Kids must be accompanied by an adult.
We suggest 2-3 active participants per session, so each person has time to play. Additional people (and guardians) are welcome to listen and observe as the sessions take place.
This is a free event.
Bookings are required. Email admin@blueoyster.org.nz to book. Please include names, ages, and a contact phone number in your booking email.
