Course overview
Course description
In this one-off session we will familiarise ourselves with the Maldon Embroidery, how it came about, who worked on it and how it was designed and made. We’ll consider each of the seven panels in turn, picking out the themes and motifs in the design and exploring the history of Maldon through some of its most famous events and recognisable people and buildings. We’ll support our learning with photos and maps so that you can visit the embroidery and the places it shows at a time that is good for you. You can expect a slide presentation, discussion and notes, including details of when and how to see the Maldon Embroidery for yourself.
