Silverdale, Lancashire.

A weekend geek-out for the split wood community.
Split! welcomes you to Silverdale for a weekend of community building with your wood wrestling basketry buddies. Bring your hazel, ash, oak, sweet chestnut, willow & any other woody species asking to be split into baskety bits. Bring your ideas, conundrums, experiments and cultural rabbit holes. Bring your buzzing brains and tired bodies to chat, hang out, play around and expand.

We ask you to be part of co-creating this event with suggestions for what you’d like to delve deeper into and ideas for what you’d like to see happen.
