Woollen Woods

Diamond Jubilee Wood, Whitehead will be transformed into a Woollen Wonderland!

Woollen Woods is UK wide project that began in 2013 and covers five regions on the UK mainland. Diamond Jubilee Wood is the first Woollen Wood in Northern Ireland!

Woollen Woods is an enchanting outdoor art installation featuring hundreds of woodland-themed woollen artworks which have been created by schools, knitting groups and individuals all over Northern Ireland. Their contributions include knitted fruit, flowers, insects and birds. We even have a yarn bombed bicycle!


This is a fantastic project which brings the arts and the environment together and the grand opening is on Saturday 16th May 2015. This will be marked with a free family fun day at Diamond Jubilee Wood with arts, crafts and environmental activities taking place from 1-5pm. Come along and see the woolly creations for yourself!
