Please register your interest! This is a wonderful workshop for both adults and kids over 10yrs 
The Valere Talisman Project is a social object project that aims to encourage more connected, inclusive communities, through a sense of personal accountability.
This Rakino special is the first time participants will get to make your own talisman!
Workshoppers will choose a certain value you want to uphold within your own community.
During the workshop you will make your own talisman using brass and silk. We will use letter stamps to hammer your chosen value onto brass, then roll this into a tube and thread it through with an auspicious red cord for wearability.
The talisman acts as a reminder and visual signifier of your values as well as identifying you as an ambassador for the project, joining others from around New Zealand and Australia who have been a part of the Valere Talisman Project.
$20 pp, materials included.
2hr workshop
Ages 10 and up.
