Building the clay frames
The frames are now soaking ready to be moved to the tents on Thursday 17 July.
Petaling and building the Well Dressings
The petaling takes place in the week prior to opening ceremony, we cannot start too soon or the clay will dry out!
You can come anytime to do petaling, there will usually be someone on hand to explain what to do, but instructions are on display. All ages welcome.
