What an inspiring talk to finish off our 2015/16 season! Whilst Chloe had an art background following a BA in Embroidery at Manchester School of Art & a Scholarship to do an MA, her work in the charity/ refugee sector provided an inspiration & a mechanism for translating her passion whilst sharing stories & learning skills from different countries. Chloe told us of her commercial successes but her use of the 'bird' as a symbol for women's stories was fantastic. We would have all bought one of her bags on the night if they had been available ( you made the bag, & it had special cut outs of birds which could be made in to a separate item as a symbol- I know I am not telling this well!). Great evening.
