Join us for the final 5×15 Bristol of the year, for a very special evening in the glamorous Spiegeltent, on 10th December.
We are thrilled to announce that one of the UK’s most renowned designers, the creative visionary, Wayne Hemingway (MBE), will appear live, in conversation, with the inspirational broadcaster, artist and campaigner Karen Arthur.
Within the rounds of this bohemian, bevelled mirror tent, amongst intricately carved panels, draped ceilings and stained glass windows, these two style gurus will take the stage, to cover Hemingway’s four decades as a pioneer in the realms of creativity and social change. Expect a deep and lively conversation that will delve into their shared passions; Wayne and Karen are both fervent advocates of sustainable fashion, reinvention and regeneration, as well as the powerful, positive impact that creativity and self-expression can have on society.
To round off the night, stick around to browse the bookstall, enjoy a drink, and continue the conversation in the enchanting surroundings of the Spiegeltent.
