Join us for a hands-on weaving workshop led by Perth-based artist Sharyn Egan, for NAIDOC Week 2026.

In this session, participants will learn basic weaving techniques using natural fibres in a relaxed and supportive environment. Sharyn will guide you through simple methods to create your own woven piece while sharing knowledge of weaving as an important cultural practice.

What to expect:

  • Create your own small woven piece to take home

  • Learn basic weaving techniques using natural fibres

  • Gain insight into weaving as an important Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people cultural practice

  • Enjoy an interactive and hands-on cultural experience.

Presented by Sharyn Egan, a respected Noongar artist based in Western Australia. Sharyn is known for her work across weaving, painting and sculpture, using natural and contemporary fibres to create both traditional and modern forms.
