DAFT will be joining with a group of designer makers, artists, poets, drummers and other creative types to present samples of upcycled fashion and art.
A chance to discuss ethical fashion and how you can make a difference.
There will also be a garment printing workshop, where you can customise one of your own pieces using low - tech techniques to achieve exciting visual results. ... So... Bring your own t-shirt, top, jacket, jeans or skirt you'd like to give a new edge, a small contribution for materials (money or cake, not fussy) and have some fun creating & meeting new people.
ABOUT THE OLD PRINT WORKS
A community of artists and craftspeople, based in an energy efficient building - the Old Print Works on the Moseley rd. Business and community working together and sharing the space. Rent, buy and community investment models. Along with workshop areas and studio spaces will be display areas, community space and a cafe.
Hello there kamara,
I have been working with natural fibres in Nepal for a long time now and can supply you with fibre, yarns, textiles, as well as finished goods. Please have a look at www.heavenhemp.co.uk and www.wildweaves.co.uk to get an idea of what we do. I work with hemp, nettle, cactus, banana, bamboo . Hope to hear from you and would like to be your friend. Take care,
Udaya
