Cockpit Arts; live demonstrations

The next open weekend at the delightful Cockpit Arts studios in Creekside is scheduled for 17/18 May, when they will also have FREE live demonstrations going on.

The programme will run as follows on both the Saturday and the Sunday:

11.30: The Art of Hat Making by Katty Janneh
12.30: Making Guitars by Peter True
13.30: Felt Making by textile artist Ann Dingsdale
14.30: Hand Raising Silver by Ndidi Ekubia
15.30: Using a Loom by weaver Shirley Ann Dixon

If you've been reading this blog for any length of time you might guess that I'll be planning to go to the 15.30 demo of weaving....

The day runs from 11am till 6, and refreshments will be available from East Dulwich Deli and Kennard's Good Foods who will be hosting cafes on the site.

There's a similar event at the sister studios in Holborn on June 14/15. See the website for details.
