We Are Family Summer Workshop DIY Babouche Slippers

20 Aug 2020

Arnolfini
Bristol BS1 4QA

Overview

Join Let’s Make Art to make a simply stitched pair of Moroccan slippers. Decorate your bespoke footwear with pom poms and felt shapes to create patterns inspired by the colourful, traditional designs of textiles, rugs and baskets seen in the lively Souks of Marrakech. We have invited the wonderful artists at Let’s Make Art to run a series of fun workshops to develop your own stand out style! Inspired by Hassan Hajjaj’s celebration of his Moroccan heritage and cultural influences, we will be celebrating the beautiful diversity that make Bristol such a great city to live in. All the workshops will be finished off with our Photo Booth. Reproducing Hassan Hajjaj’s recognisable style of portraiture, we will create a flamboyant backdrop and frame to capture the wearable artwork created at all Let’s Make Art workshops. With permission your child will be sent a portrait of themselves in all their colourful designs. Extra precautions will be put in place to ensure all families can take part in the workshop safely. Age guidance 5+. All children must be accompanied by a parent/carer. 1.00pm to 2.15pm and 3.00pm to 4.15pm
