Iyabo says... " I love teaching workshops, it brings the community together and that is a space for beautiful spirit and joy."
Adire workshops are designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the
craft and the History. Adire is not just a craft; it is a form of storytelling.
Each pattern and design holds a deeper meaning, reflecting the cultural
heritage and traditions of the Yoruba people.

Furthermore, workshops provide a supportive and encouraging environment for participants to explore their creativity. As participants interact with fellow enthusiasts, they exchange ideas, tips, tricks and stories, fostering a sense of community and camaraderie. This collaborative atmosphere allows participants to push the
boundaries of their creativity and discover new possibilities within the realm
of Adire making.
