Bishop’s Sutton: there be dragons!

Bishop’s Sutton: there be dragons!

Village’s first Scrapstore Art Workshop

creates figures, fantasies – and fun

Dragons roared and rockets were launched, birds flew and robots strutted, where previously there had just been a bewildering array of materials. Yes, everybody had great fun at Bishop’s Sutton’s first Art Workshop, organised by Southampton Scrapstore.

Led by Scrapstore’s Stuart Jebbitt and local artist, Melissa Simm, the Workshop saw children and their parents make some wonderful monsters, men and machines from the plentiful, high-quality ‘scrap’ provided.

Following this success, Scrapstore is planning to hold further Workshops on October 18 and November 1. They run from 3 to 4:30pm in Bishop’s Sutton Village Hall; they are free, and all materials, paints, glues, etc. are provided; just bring along yourselves and your imagination.

To book a place, or for any queries, please contact Stuart on stuartjebbitt@hotmail.com or 07766 096148.

Eastleigh Carnival 2009

Another sunny(ish) afternoon in Eastleigh and this years carnival procession lined up on Grantham Green ready for the off, despite worries earlier in the year of it not going ahead. Following a plea for help by the Local paper, the CB project helped out by putting on a number of costume making workshops and supporting two of our community groups to taking part once again.

DICE (Drop in Centre Eastleigh) (pictured), and the Mini Millbrook Project paraded together, on what was a great afternoon, with MM winning a 1st prize once again!
