Material World After Hours – might end early

WILL BE CANCELLED IF LESS THAN 5 RSVP (will be mindful of it being an in-person event and not cancel last minute).

Book your ticket here for the 6:30pm slot. It's around £18 depending on concessions or memberships

We'll meet outside Kew Gardens tube station and walk to the event (forgive me if I'm not that chatty on the walk, I'll be map reading and sometimes find multitasking difficult). If you've never been before, aim to be a little early because we won't be waiting for latecomers, 6:20 is when we'll be leaving the station. I'll tell you on the day what I'm wearing (I'll post in the comments of this event and in the WhatsApp community for those that are in that) so you can find me.

The event explores the past, present and future of humans' relationship with nature through fashion, music and making. There will be dance performances, live DJs, poetry readings, sustainable styling sessions, science talks, an artisan market and workshops on natural dyeing, bio-sequin making and seaweed weaving There will also be low-waste botanical food (I'm guessing they mean vegetarian) and drink sold if people want some. We can discuss what appeals to people on the day.

It may be busy and therefore noisy, bring earplugs/noise cancelling earphones or headphones if you think you'll need them. I cannot predict how busy or loud it'll be.

As the title says, this may end early. It's set to end at 9:20pm because that's when the event ends but, if my social battery totally dies before then or most people want to leave earlier, we'll just leave (you're welcome to stay and enjoy without the group if we end up leaving before you're ready to).
