IT’S OUR BIRTHDAY, MONTH!
Whoop whoop! You’ll never guess what? SHOP is only 4 years old on the 16th October! Like an old scab that keeps catching, we’re managed to hang on in there.
This birthday is especially special, as it also marks our first anniversary of becoming a Social Enterprise. So accordingly we’re feeling particularly cheery and have invited lots of people to help us celebrate by putting on a stack of Community Arts events. So just get over it, okay?
The events should be illustrated… yes, below:
EVENTS
EXHIBITIONS:
Peace & Unity by Paulo DaSilveira
4th October – 9th October 11am – 6pm FREE
Exhibition and free ongoing workshops on papermaking and monoprinting with Paulo DaSilveira.
