Textile Arts & Crafts Workshop

If you enjoy exploring all forms of textile and multimedia art, this activity is for you.

We experiment with many different techniques (embroidery, weaving, patchwork, quilting, collages, dyeing techniques…) and we take pleasure in sharing and exploring various types of work together.

Some of our shared projects are displayed at the library. This year we intend to go further into the artistic side of creation.

No previous expertise required. Just come and join us!


Garden Club visit | 15/05/2025 | 2:30 pm-4:30 pm

Garden Club visit

On Thursday afternoon, May 15th, the Garden Club will visit the Jardin des Arcands located in Segré en Anjou Bleu.  You can find information about this garden on their website at www.LesJardinsDesArcands.fr.  The guided visit will take place in “Franglais” – that is the owner promises tell as much as she can in English with the rest in French.  The cost of the visit is 10€ and if needed, we can try to arrange a ride for you.

We always plan lunch at a nearby restaurant before each garden visit, and you are welcome to bring snacks to enjoy afterward.

If you would like more information about this activity, or if you would like to join us for the visit (or the visit + lunch), send an email to GardenClub@ellia.org.
