Home Educator Day - The Warp and Weft of Weaving

Through interactive learning and hands on activities, this workshop aims to help participants learn more about Coventry's weaving history.

Participants will investigate the wool industry in the city and discover how the collapse of the industry affected ordinary people. They will learn how a soup kitchen worked, experience life as a working Victorian child in a weaving family and find out how this work changed as the industry moved from the home into the factories.

24th September| 10am | 2 hours | Maximum two adults per booking.

FAQ's

Home Educator workshops have a set capacity and often sell out very quickly. Although tickets may be available on the day, it is best to buy in advance.

Although accompanying adults and under 5’s do not need to pay- everyone must book a place in advance.

We offer a Home Educator workshop around a different theme every few months, visit the What’s On page to see what is coming up next.

Workshops normally last around two hours, but you are free to explore the building after your workshop, provided it is inside of open hours.
