SKETCHFEST: sCRAP Fashion Art with Elyse Blackshaw

  • Sketch Appeal 64 Charlotte Road EC2A3PE United Kingdom (map)

Join us for a playful and crafty workshop creating fun fashion art with Illustrator and Educator Elyse Blackshaw!

We’ll be using sCRAP materials to co-create large-scale, mixed-media illustrations that will fill the walls of our workshop space and be left on display for the duration of our pop-up. We’ll also be making 3D fashion fairies and remixing old sketches.

All materials provided but feel free to bring any scrap sketches, fabric, card, paper etc. along - we will use them in other workshops throughout the weeks!

Suitable for ages 12+
All tickets £8
