Create your own pair of shoes using recycled materials

 Ever wondered how shoes are made? Fancy making your own art piece on a real shoe last? For over ten years, Sasha worked as a footwear designer for the UK high street and as a shoemaker. She'll be sharing some info on shoemaking and the industry whilst you get to play with shoemaking lasts and recycled materials such as card and reclaimed fabric to make your own art piece. The focus will be on how we can reduce our carbon footprint through the choices we make whilst having some fun!
