Leeds Heritage Pub and History Walk

Starting in the shadow of the Black Prince, in City Square, this three-hour tour is run by It's The Beer Talking, a new business established by beer writer Simon Jenkins and event organiser and former Tetley's PR officer Nicky Massen.

You’ll learn how our city is still shaped by its 13th century geography, how it was the scene of audacious industrial espionage, the key role it played in the birth of a global entertainment industry – and about an extraordinary human auction, where people were sold to the highest bidder, a little over a century ago.

In this day class you will learn how to create a mixed media piece of textile art using paper, collage and unusual materials to create your own embellishments. Hayley will guide you through creating a textured paper collage ready to embellish with hand and machine embroidery as well as unusual materials like plastic and metal. You will learn how to combine these non-traditional materials to make your piece as well as using hand and machine embroidery to enhance your design.

Drawing with Thread - Hand Embroidery and Applique Workshop with Hayley Mills-Styles

In this day class you will learn how to create a design from a photograph (of a landscape, or portrait) and bring it to life using fabric and thread. Hayley will guide you through the basics of tracing a design, and transferring this onto to fabric ready to stitch using a variety of threads with some raw edge applique to add colour and texture.

You will also learn some simple hand embroidery stitches that create your embroidered picture including stem stitch, French knots and satin stitch.

International Jousting Tournament

It’s tournament time again at the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds.  

Over the Easter bank holiday weekend, we will be welcoming international teams of knights from Germany and the USA, as well as our home-grown Royal Armouries team competing for the UK. 

This is no choreographed show of ‘black’ and ‘white’ knights in a contrived battle of good versus evil – this is full-on, all-out authentic competition with thrills and spills, victory and honour, plus plenty of pomp and pageantry.
