As part of “The Big Draw Festival”* we are returning for a bunch of fun Halloween/Day of the Dead themed accessible arty activities to take part in, shops to discover and so much colour to be found.
Businesses at the Parade shops (including Artisan Lab, Studio 67, and Ewe & Ply) and local artists will be hosting 20 minute accessible craft and art activities throughout the day.
Create a Day of the Dead collage, macrame skeleton keyrings, horror gel printing, spooky face painting, witch’s bells, Day of the Dead flower crowns, decorate an illuminated haunted house, and much more…
Entry will again be free and we will ask for a nominal fee of between £1 - £5 per activity to cover…
