RSVP opens Thursday 17th September at 10am
✏️🪡🎨This is an event were we can get together and each do our own creative projects. It's up to you to bring your own art supplies, we are just making a space to be creative and enjoy each others company ☺️ you can bring whatever you want, as long as it's vegan friendly, is easy to clean up & doesn't affects other attendees/the staff such as anything that creates fumes or dust.
🌺 ☀️ 🍄 We could think of a theme in the comments if people would like some inspiration, but it would be totally optional whether or not you want to follow it.
💚As you know this is a vegan event, everyone is welcome but please don't bring along any non vegan materials or snacks in respect of us and all animals. Thank you.💚
🍴😋 The pub is fully vegan, I have been before for a roast and it was delicious! But I haven't tried their weekday menu yet. The kitchen closes at 9pm, last orders at the bar are at 10:30pm and we need to leave & each clean any mess that you've created up by 11pm. Though the event officially ends at 10pm some of us may want to stay longer 😊
