hello! and welcome to the ScrapShop ! in this very special extended edition of the MQ Scrapbooking and zine-making workshop, we are focusing our efforts toward fundraising for Lex’s top surgery! The proceeds we raise from this session will entirely go toward Lex’s surgery and the support they need through recovery.  We will be making a mess on Dalston Superstore’s tables for the longer time of 5 – 10pm on the 6th October – all with the vibes being set by favourite DJs of ours. Find out more about Lex and the journey they’re on, here. You may have met them as one of the facilitators of our scrapbooking workshops, or as one of the artists behind the beautiful lino-printed art of ManosQueer. Our workshops are usually free to attend, but this time, we are asking for a minimum donation of £2. Please do contribute whatever is within your means!  We will then provide all resources required for engaging in this workshop. If cost is still a barrier to you, please do get in contact.
