Workshop

Spooky Season might be behind us, but not long ago, people tried to protect their homes from evil spirits all year round!

Join us to learn about the history of magical house protection, and the objects, symbols, and practices that people used across Europe and North America to keep themselves safe.

The adult workshop includes a visit to This Place: Our Lives on Land and Sea to see some objects from our collections, followed by a hands-on workshop to learn basic embroidery stitches and create a protective symbol of your own (or to gift for Christmas!)

All materials and a refreshment break of coffee and a muffin are included in the cost.

Cost: $40 plus HST per person. 10% discount for Rooms Members.

Seating is limited. Pre-registration is required. No experience needed. To register, please call 709-757-8090.
