Show Up Southend

A SEASON OF CREATIVE EVENTS

After the brilliant success of last year, Show Up! Southend are delighted to bring you another a season of creative events across the District of Rochford. We’re bringing more art+craft events, theatre and live comedy!

Early Bird Tickets Released 26th July

This project is funded by the UK government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund via Rochford District Council. All events will have PayAsYouGo options

MONDAY CRAFT CLUB

Come along and try two new arts and crafts activities in one joyful evening! Lead by experienced friendly demonstrators in intimate welcoming community spaces! 

9th September @ Brocks Corner

16th September @ Hockley Old Fire Station 

23rd September @ Brocks Corner

30th September @ Barling Magna

7th October @ Brocks Corner

From 6pm – 8pm every Monday evening for 5 weeks!

Cost: 1 session = £12. Early Bird Deal for 5 sessions = £50

Details of which craft activity will be on each night will be released shortly! Early Bird Tickets will go on sale 26th July. And craft activities will be shared in August

We believe in sharing the real value of creative events. Without funding to run this event and covering all costs, a ticket to each individual session would cost between £20 – £25 and we would have to sell at 100% capacity. 

GIVE IT A GO – 

THE HANDS ON CRAFT SHOW

Join us for an exciting day of creativity and fun at our “Give It A Go” hands-on craft show! Try up to 10 different arts and crafts activities in a series of mini taster sessions.
 
Choose from a huge range of crafts, from macrame to lino printing, there’s something new for everyone! Learn from friendly, experienced demonstrators who will guide you every step of the way. It’s a fantastic opportunity to try something new and meet fellow craft enthusiasts!

It’s going to be one amazing, craft filled day!
