The Nettle Dress - Film Screening
Time: 6pm - 8pm.
The film follows the journey of Allan Brown as he learns how to produce textiles from nettles.
Textile artist Allan Brown spends seven years making a dress by hand just from the fibre of locally foraged stinging nettles. It’s how Allan survives the passing of his wife, leaving him and their four children bereft, and how he finds a beautiful way to honour her.
A labour of love in the truest sense, The Nettle Dress is a modern-day fairytale and hymn to the healing power of nature and slow craft.
