A second online tutorial gives instructions on how to make a windmill from recycled materials, like plastic bottles, that can be found at home.

Art in the Park staff can be contacted on [email protected] to arrange collection of completed dreamcatchers and windmills, which will then be displayed at the event.

The tutorials can be found at artinpark.co.uk/workshops, along with details of other workshops that can be booked ahead of the festival weekend.

There is a mixture of free and paid workshops but, due to Covid restrictions, all have limited places that must be booked.
