What

What are MOHE all about?

MOHE offers monthly workshops on a variety of traditional and innovative crafting techniques, adding the Minister's own maverick touch to the proceedings. Both Minister's have teaching in their career history (Art & Design and Design & Technology) and are therefore  able to offer you an experience that has been tailor made for the inventive crafter. Whether you are a beginner or established crafter with oodles of experience we guarantee you a learning experience that will add to your craft vocabulary. One of the great aspects about MOHE is that you need have no previous skill to feel completely comfortable at one of our workshops. It's because we are a Craft group and not a Knitting/Sewing/Crochet club that we can use different materials to create the range of projects we have developed, so being able to thread a needle is certainly not a necessity here at MOHE!

The workshops change each month and details are posted about the upcoming workshop a fortnight in advance on the blog Home page (just scroll down the page if another post has been added),  Workshops page and on our Facebook page. 
If you contact the Minister's and request to be added to the MOHE mailing list, you will also receive e-mail notifications. Contact them via e-mail or text stating your name and how you heard about MOHE.
