A new chapter for HOW 🌿⁠
⁠
A little while ago we told our subscriber community that Hands On Workshop would be closing, at least in its current form. The world this business started in looks very different now, and a lot had changed in what it takes to run it well.⁠
⁠
We've looked at HOW from every angle and listened closely to what you've told us (thanks to those who completed the survey). So instead of closing, HOW is changing.⁠
⁠
We're growing into more than a store for Japanese craft. HOW will become a home for the wider community of makers, artisans and workshop hosts working in craft and slow-making. Over the coming months a new directory and content hub will take shape, so fellow makers can be found by people who really care about this kind of work.⁠
⁠
✋ Are you a maker, artisan or workshop host, or do you know one? We're bringing together a founding cohort before launch, and joining early comes with real benefits.⁠

This is a magnificent exhibition. Well worth the trip to Canberra. 20 huge tapestries by Arthur Boyd - first time shown as the complete collection - depicting the life of St Francis of Assisi. Made by master weavers in Portugal decades ago. Watch the video at the exhibition with the interviews with the studio weavers.
