Traditional Canal Craft Courses - Including Roses & Castles with Phil Speight at Bollington Wharf

[NB Alton]

Once again we're running a series of traditional canal crafts workshops. Our team are really keen that these skills & crafts are passed on from generation to generation and kept alive on our living, working waterways. Many CWDF members have had enjoyable weekends on our previous courses.

 

Our first course this year is Roses & Castles with Phil Speight

weekend 23-24th Feb 2019

 

It's a fabulous two day hands on Workshop where you will learn how to paint traditional narrowboat roses and castles with renowned master Craftsman Phil Speight. Phil's skills, knowledge & passion for this traditional method of decoration shine through to guide, teach & inspire trainees. You don't need any previous experience, just an interest in this fascinating traditional skill & a desire to learn.

 

Lunch and all materials are included, plus you'll take away your completed practice board. The course takes place at our working boatyard at Bollington Wharf.

 

Throughout the year we'll be running more courses including signwriting, boat painting, fendermaking and advanced roses & castles.
