Creative Living Willow
Willow rods can be planted during the winter to produce a living, vibrant structure the following spring. This weekend will empower you to design living willow pieces, purchase materials and create functional and sculptural structures for an outdoor space. You will work as a team creating a Living Willow dome on-site and have a go at creating a small willow sculpture to take home that makes use of living and dried willow.
Topics covered:
- Choosing a site
- Types of living willow
- Preparing the site
- Construction techniques
- Maintainence
- Sculptural techniques
