Circular Arts Network LCR will be hosting a Destash Sale and Materials Swap in the Events Space at DoES Liverpool on 1st Floor of the Tapestry Building.
Bring along some of your own materials that you no longer want or need, to swap for something exciting and new to you!
There will be a selection of fabrics, haberdashery and other materials available to buy or swap. A great opportunity to go through your stash of materials long forgotten or leftover from some old project. Or the ones that have never found the right project for, but they’re too good to just throw away!
Come and share resources and ideas with members of our crafty community.
Many items also available to buy on a donation basis for those who want to come to shop instead of swap!Book your free tickets here:

Northwestern is a dynamic duo whose engaging performances and stellar recorded work reflect the considerable skills of both artists.
Chris Howarth is an eloquent singer-songwriter in the classic vein whose compositions have drawn substantive praise, for example, from Sonoro “ a core of compassionate optimism underscores the song-writing…. damn great, a fascinating meditation.”
Adrian Hough is a bottleneck guitarist who is renowned for his sympathetic accompaniment and emotive expression, about whom, Guitarist magazine stated that his “sublime slide-work is as stunning as it is varied.”
Together these two fine artists deliver a set of primarily original songs with interpretations of classics to appreciative audiences, wherever they play.
“Super cool sounds from Northwestern this evening, a duo that works effortlessly together, crafting great songs and delivering them impeccably! Clever and inventive songwriting, delivered superbly, this is a duo at the top of their game, so come check them out.”

The Sunflower Dreams Project is a series of exhibitions held across the EU, UK, and North America, organised by a team of international volunteers, all of whom have served in Ukraine since the full-scale war started in 2022.
The project partners with artists Nataliia and Yustyna Pavliuk, who run art healing masterclasses in Lviv, to present a sample of the paintings created by the Ukrainian children they work with. The paintings they create are filled with dreams, joy, and love for family and home.
These paintings are displayed alongside works from the Williamson’s collection by Albert Richards, the youngest official war artist to be killed in action during WWII.
Seeing them side by side offers different perspectives on the impact of war, with The Sunflower Dreams project presenting an important contemporary perspective on how war effects young lives.
