Making With Mycelium : Mycomaterials Workshop

Mushroom Candle holders? Mushroom packaging? Mushroom leather? Mushroom buildings?!

Mycelium (the dense, root-like structure of fungi) is a sustainable, renewable, and biodegradable material with a wide range of potential applications - from building materials to fashion and design. It is also strong, lightweight, and mouldable, making it a viable alternative to traditional materials.

In this workshop you'll learn about the amazing properties and potential for mycelium in architecture, design and art. You'll also have a chance to make your own mould and cast an object out of mycelium composite to take home and grow yourself!

This workshop takes place at Fat Fox Mushrooms - London's Urban Mushroom Farm - as part of the Fungi Festival Week.
