Queer Craft Club - Custom Snap Fans

Hang out with fellow adults who identify under the queer and trans (LGBTQIA+) umbrella, enjoy yummy snacks and a chilled craft session!

You can work on this month's project or bring your own. We'll explore a variety of arts and crafts such as sewing, soft toy making, crochet, knitting, ceramics, drawing, photography, embroidery, zine-making and much more! You'll be able to help us decide what to try next.

So if you want to get crafty, this is the place for you, whether you're a first time dabbler or an experienced maker.

About the sessions

Sessions will be led by our lovely host Teddy Bear Josh (They/He) or by a visiting artist. You can join in or bring your own portable project to work on.

We'll supply

• Pronoun badges

This session is in our upstairs workshop space. We're in the process of having a lift installed which should be completed by the end of April.

There is currently no level access. It’s a single flight of 14 steps then you go around the corner and there are two small steps. Once you’re upstairs there’s a loo. You shouldn’t need to come downstairs for anything until the end of the event.

If you can’t manage the stairs but really want to attend, please let us know by the 24th of the month before by emailing (using the contact organiser button/link) or sending us an SMS text/WhatsApp message on 07957 602790. and we will try to move the activity downstairs.

If you have additional access needs (e.g. large print, BSL interpreter, level access) please let us know.
