Make a Dreamcatcher
Learn to weave a Dreamcatcher with Nicky Samuel
A special workshop supporting our Māori Myths & Legends month of October, create a protective talisman used to protect people from nightmares and bad dreams. Used for young children to hang above their beds, dreamcatchers act like a spider's web, trapping bad dreams while allowing the good ones to filter down through the feathers. In the sun's light the bad dreams are extinguished and only the good dreams remain.
