Local Welcome meals in Cardiff
What to expect...
We’re collaborating with a local artist, Lucy Mebarki, who will be facilitating joyful and low-pressure zine-making workshops to accompany the cooking at your next four meals, starting in March.
Whether you’re a budding artist, or someone who believes they ‘can’t draw’, Lucy will support you to reflect on your home, your identity, and what helps you to feel you belong and express this through the dual mediums of food and drawing.
Just like when we cook together, the focus will be on the shared experiences, mutual respect, and collaborative expression...everyone is welcome!
No prior art experience is needed, and food will still be provided.
Please note: the start time is 30 minutes earlier than usual.
