Festive fun was had and new friends were made this week as the Kushti Bok Christmas Crafts Workshop was in full swing! Romany heritage craft leaders Sue Miller and Debbie Holmes guided our Crimbo Crafters though a day of decoupage, and crochet. Take a look at our pictures below!

On the 5th of December Dorset History Centre hosted an exciting day of discovery. Attendees were introduced to the Dorset History Centre archives and learnt about the importance of documenting the past. What do you know about your ancestors? Do you have any stories to share?

Wrote a piece for The i Paper about the absolute disregard of Gypsies and Travellers surrounding the Dianne Abbott discussion, and the need for inclusive dialogue around racism.

"So... what do you do?" Discovering what people from Gypsy, Romany and Traveller communities did in the past can be difficult. As part of GRT History month, today's blog looks at some of the issues: orlo.uk/vhM96 @KushtiBokDorset #GRTHistorymonth #Exploreyourarchive

As part of the Legend Pole project, we had not one, but two Wagon Painting Workshops. Lisa Lukins led us through a series of drawing and painting tutorials, and demonstrated the application of gold leafing that can be found on many traditional wagons. #KushtiBok #KushtiBokDorset
