Cool Craft
‘where it’s at’; plenty of cities are getting in on the
act- including TRASHION’s base! We might not
be the cultural hub of the
universe, but Birmingham
sure does know how to
give Kings Cross a run for
its money with the emergence of new Craft Nights
popping up from Kings
Heath to the city centre.
One such night is A
Crafty Beer, the brainchild
of local lady Katie Moran who came up with the
idea as she gazed around
at her friends sewing and
drawing at the bar, whilst
she was in fact knitting.
Running for a year and
a half at the famed nineteenth century pub The
Victoria, boasting a feature in Glamour Magazine
and recruiting newcomers
with every stitch, after little more than the equivalent of Facebook Chinese
Whispers, A Crafty Beer
shows no sign of retreat,
embracing the ever innovative creative community
of Birmingham. Whether
you’re replenishing your
jewellery box, stocking up
on next winter’s homemade Christmas presents
or seeing how many beers
it takes before you begin to
colour outside the lines, it
seems this free, monthly
night is not to be missed.
And there are plenty more
like it around the country!
So there you have it.
There really is no reason
choose between culture
and a healthy social life.
Here’s to the ‘Coronas and
Cross-Stitch’
revolution
