Open House Day at SCCS

Open House. Sat 16th September at South Camden Community School.
This workshop was to celebrate Architecture in London and many of the listed buildings were open to the public.

SCCS has a newly designed IT extension which was part of the accredited architectural buildings and the school thought that it would be a good idea to run a print workshop for the public, so that people could make use of some of the facilities on offer at SCCS.
We asked people to think about their ‘dream house’ or ‘building’ draw a stencil, cut and print a panel.

We had brought some reference to inspire and encourage them to have a go. We probably saw about 45-50 people, of all ages, not all of them wanted to print but lots of people came and asked questions about textiles at South Camden, about Cloth of Gold and projects we might be doing in the future.
It was really well attended and the feedback from the school was very good. Here’s feedback from the Headteacher Rosmary Leake:
‘Many thanks for the very successful organisation – as I said in briefing, a very effective day. Definitely a good move to have the print workshop – one of the parents I showed round this morning had been in it with her two children and spoke very positively about it....
And to everyone else who generously gave their time and energy to help the day go well – many thanks!’

Also from the event organiser:

‘Thank You for all your help and support for Open House last Saturday. We had many visitors, the vast majority being prospective parents and local residents. Feedback on the print workshop and Bollywood dancing was very good’
