This Heritage Lottery Funded Project has visited historical locations all over Devon, looking at some precious clothes and accessories from England and the rest of the world.
The group explored ideas and feelings these items inspire in us. What do they remind us of? How do they link to things from our own cultures?
Creative workshops explored these connections further. The workshops were led by a professional, who helped the group express their ideas and feelings through creativity, and share in conversations all about clothing and culture.
