School workshops
Willow sculpture workshops are perfect for your school’s art week, summer school or as a forest school activity. Permanent willow installations built in collaboration with students can also make a meaningful and eye-catching addition to your school grounds or entranceway. Students learn techniques used to create sculptures from willow including the making of a metal base structure for larger works. Willow sculpting develops students’ fine motor, team- building and communication skills.
