My mum and I had a lovely time at the workshop. We’d never tried it before but Tihara explained everything so well and showed us how to do the technique properly. There was room to be as creative as we wanted, raffia embroidery is very intricate but really straightforward to do. The session was very + more

A really enjoyable class learning how to make an artwork using raffia. Tihara was patient and knowledgeable guiding us through the steps and sharing the history of the Caribbean and the use of raffia. It was a calming creative space to learn, chat and relax.

Really lovely class. Initially I thought it was quite expensive, but the teaching and materials were really high-quality. Raffia embroidery is also way harder than it looks! Really lovely community to feel to the lesson also. Will definitely do another class.

Tihara was an amazing host. She encouraged?us all and genuinely was very appreciative of her class. I really enjoyed the entry level raffia weaving class and would be keen to do other classes, maybe raffia bags?

A stunning workshop that I would recommend to any and everybody, especially those from a West Indian background. Tihara is so talented and so generous. She showed us step by step and allowed our creative juices to flow. With a detailed intro and surprise to end with, it was amazing from beginning to end. Thank you Tihara.

A very well planned and facilitated workshop. A great deal of thought and care had gone into every detail. I (75yrs) took my god daughter (30 yrs) and we both enjoyed it thoroughly. Congratulations to Tihara and her mother. Thank you so much

I really enjoyed the workshop. The two hour workshop flew by. The hosts Tihara and Tihara's mum were welcoming and knowledgeable. I learnt alot about raffia and the historical significance of raffia in Caribbean crafts.
