Mini Selkie Costume Workshop – aged 4+

What: Create your own mini selkie costume from recycled materials with artist AJ Stockwell

This activity links to the history and folklore of selkies in the Western Isles and the tradition of ‘guising’, of using found materials to create a costume that hides your identity (such as those seen in Margaret Fay Shaw’s photographs of South Uist).
