Christchurch Maths Craft Day

Discover the maths behind craft and the craft behind maths with the return of the Christchurch Maths Craft Day, Sunday May 23 in The Great Hall at The Arts Centre.

We’re back this year with our first Christchurch festival since 2018, with even more maths and crafts! Featuring a range of craft creation stations and public talks by mathematician crafters, the day-long celebration of maths promises to engage people of all ages.

Knit a mathematical knot, crochet a Möbius strip, fold an origami octahedron, flex a hexahexaflexagon, and listen to talks about the connections between maths and crafts.

Explore the Teece Museum at the Arts Centre and discover the ancient relationship between mathematics, art, and craftsmanship.

Open to everyone: experts and amateurs, maths-fans and maths-phobes, the crafty and the curious.
