Fun Textiles classes / courses in Melbourne

Textiles classes for beginners

Textile arts go way back in world history. Not only were they functional in ancient societies on every continent for clothing, but each population also used textiles for art and culture. You can find myths and legends on the wall tapestries of many European cultures. Some other societies relied on fiber art designs to differentiate communities and families. And basket weaving and other woven vessels told stories of generations of tradition and togetherness. Fiber arts is one of those types of cultural phenomenon that brings us together and helps us to define ourselves.

In today’s world of mass production, however, the cultural and artistic side of textile arts has fallen to the wayside. It’s much easier to buy a machine knit sweater than to make one yourself. And macrame wall art pieces are cheap and convenient to buy. But if you want to take back this ancient skill and learn more about fiber art, ClassBento has made it easier than ever before.
