SUMMARY:Puppet Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Communal Clay Puppet Workshop \n\n\n\nUsing clay and slips you will be able to create a puppet\, character\, monster or creature. \n\n\n\nYou will be able to add colour and depth to your work with wild clay slips we have collected from around South London. And the option to have the piece fired and glazed with wood ash glaze. \n\n\n\nThe session will last 2 hours. \n\n\n\nTheses workshops will be more focused on the tactility of playing\, practicing and learning sculpture techniques. There is no pressure to make a ‘finished product’ or ‘perfect piece’. \n\n\n\nAt the end of the workshop if you wish to have your piece fired and glazed\, we ask you pay an additional £10 to cover firing costs\, glaze materials & transport of your work. \n\n\n\nAny leftover clay at the end of the session will be recycled for future use\, minimising wastage and keeping our workshops sustainable.

SUMMARY:Upcycling Workshop x Armenian Embroidery
DESCRIPTION:Upcycling Your Garms is an intimate embroidery workshop centred on slow\, hands-on making. \n\n\n\nRooted in traditional Armenian embroidery\, this session offers space to step away from constant consumption and reconnect with making something with intention.

Using cross-stitch patterns inspired by Taraz and waste canvas\, you’ll be able to stitch directly onto your own garments or fabric\, working with symbols\, words\, or patterns that feel meaningful to you. \n\n\n\nPlease bring a garment\, fabric\, or item you’d like to upcycle and stitch onto. \n\n\n\nAll other materials will be provided. \n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\nDate: Saturday 16 MayTime: 12-2pmLocation: SET Social\, 55a Nigel Road\, Peckham\, SE15 4NPTicketing: Sliding scale from £10.

SUMMARY:The West African Literary Circle
DESCRIPTION:The West African Literary Circle invites readers\, thinkers\, and the culturally curious to gather for its new monthly residency at SET Social. \n\n\n\nDedicated to celebrating literature from across West Africa and its diaspora\, the circle is a relaxed and welcoming space for open discussion\, shared reflection\, and community connection. Whether you are deeply familiar with the text or joining out of interest in West African storytelling\, all backgrounds are welcome. \n\n\n\nThe Series: Things Fall Apart\n\n\n\n\nFor our first three sessions\, we will be discussing Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe.

Each session includes focused time to read a specific chapter silently or as a group\, so initial reading is not strictly required to participate. \n\n\n\nThe bar and cafe will be open throughout for attendees to replenish themselves during and after the circle. \n\n\n\nIf you are experiencing barriers to accessing a copy of the book\, the host is happy to email a digital copy to potential attendees. Please reach out via Instagram at @walitcircle to request one. \n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\nDate: Tuesday 2 June (and every first Tuesday of the month)Times: 7-8:15pmLocation: SET Social\, 55a Nigel Road\, Peckham SE15 4NPTicketing: Free of charge.
