Tapestry Making

6 August 2026
11:00 AM – 3:00 PM
The Classic Boat Museum, Medina Village, Medina Road, Cowes PO31 7LP (North)

OVERVIEW

Be a history maker!

Join dozens of other Classic Boat Museum visitors in helping to create the Boatyard Tapestry.

Using free resources and design ideas provided by the museum, you can create your own “episode” of the tapestry, inspired by the boats, stories and people connected with Cowes’ rich maritime heritage.

All completed episodes will be exhibited at the museum over the summer. Local artist Jo Kori will then choose the strongest example from each episode to be stitched onto the final Boatyard Tapestry, which will go on permanent display at the Classic Boat Museum.

Come along, get creative, and help us make history together.

Please check the website prior to coming to ensure the museum is open
