The Night of the Beasts
We’ve been very pleased to support the Unextinction Machine‘s Night of the Beasts winter carnival procession on 22nd Dec 2011 by building the Beast of New Cross at the People’s Library and running a few workshops to help design and build Other Beasts. If you missed it, take a look at the Beast designs, and these great photos from Jonathan Goldberg.
Inspired?
We’ll be planning a Summer Solstice parade too, so get in touch if you want to help run that and build more colourful carnival structures or make music. We’re also celebrating the Coming of the Dragon for Chinese New Year at the library by building a dragon on 20th and 22nd January 2012, to parade on 23rd. Join us! Find out more about this event
