A
event
on Tuesday 3rd June. The event starts at 18:00.
As part of Bristol Women’s Voice’s Intergenerational Events Series, we have partnered with the charity Alive to deliver a series of bi-weekly, intergenerational creative workshops running throughout June and July. This project replicates an original art project ‘Instructions Not Included’ conceived and developed by Bristol based artist Amanda Hall - https://www.amandahall43.com
‘Instructions Not Included’ is a collaborative arts project which explores how women and feel about ageing, using preloved swimming costumes as a basis for their creations. 64 women from around the UK contributed to the orginal project, sharing thoughtful and moving stories to accompany their works.
We have decided to replicate this powerful project, building on its legacy to create a local version that brings women of all ages together to challnege societal norms and patriarchal expectations through creativity and meaningful conversation. The project will culminate in a week-long public exhibition at the Create Centre in August, showcasing the transformed swimsuits and the stories they carry.
We will be located in the cafe/foyer of Easton Community Centre.
* Please note that this event is open to individuals who identify as women and non-binary people who feel this event will benefit them
