Workshops include -

MC or PERCUSSION workshops – Friday 27th August

Come along and try your hand at drumming and percussion with the Mind on Fire band, or if you would prefer to hold a microphone join the MC collective ‘In the loop’ for some lessons in rhyme.

LIVE ART & SCREENPRINTING workshops – Saturday 28th August

Help make a master piece with OnefiveEight. As a collaborative project you’ll be adding your ideas to artworks created by this Manchester based creative collective.

one69A will also be taking you through the screen printing process, producing a specially designed T-shirt by OneFiveEight artist Face.

LIGHT ART & PHOTOGRAM workshops – Sunday 29th August

Learn cutting edge techniques using light to paint with, then step into the darkroom to learn a process that has gone out of favor in the digital age but its results, I’m sure you’ll agree, are breathtaking.

MUSIC & PORTFOLIO CRITIQUE critiques – Monday 30th August

Music critique

Do you make music? Ever wanted to know what the professionals really think? Now is your chance. Submit your tunes at the drop box in noise lab or email them to hearnoevilseenoevil@live.com and your music will be judged for the chance of appearing on our CD to be distributed through Manchester and beyond.

Portfolio critique

Calling all young creatives, your portfolio is the first impression to any prospective employer. Bring yours along and get advice from some experienced minds in the design industry.

Creations from all of these workshops will be featured in a special edition of OneFiveEight magazine which will be distributed at our launch event.

Keep your eyes peeled and ears to the ground to find out more – see you there!
