Make a SuperHero Cape!

Working with felt you will create a personalised cape for your little one featuring their own superhero name and be able to use an assortment of felt shapes we have precut for you to design a cape they will cherish.  As part of this workshop we will provide you with a bag of assorted decorations for your little one to add with you at home to continue the fun and make them feel like a real hero as they work with you to make the cloak of their dreams!

This workshop will cost £25 for which you get all materials required and extras to take home and finish the cape with your little superhero!

We will soon open booking and when we do so please choose which colour you would like for your cape.

This is a great opportunity for any artist working in 2D media.  The Live Art Local CIC family is unleashing a new art and culture publication on the world based around the south central region and those making art and culture happen in it.  With a DIY aesthetic each issue will be an artefact in its own right and we seek to showcase the amazing talent that is out there in our area!

 

We are seeking an artist who lives or works within the region shown below to create the lead artwork for the inaugural edition of South Central due to launch on March 15th 2016

Artists can work in any 2D medium/media and work can be new or existing work.   We are especially keen to see work that has some relationship to the south central region, although this is not necessary.
