Airborne aware mask chain workshop

About

Free, informal workshop to learn how to make mask chains. Will be a casual vibe, come as you are and chill out with like-minded people. Beads, silver chains and tools provided. You are encouraged to bring your own beads and old costume jewellery to repurpose.

Masks are required to attend, please wear a KN95 or more effective respirator mask. This requirement makes our event more accessible to disabled and immunocompromised people who are at higher risk from illness. N95s will be provided. Do not attend if you are unwell.

Online option will be available for those who can't attend in person. If you have your own chain materials feel free to join, otherwise BYO craft and chill out with us.
