Due to an extensive power failure in Gateshead yesterday, tonight's Shipley Lates event will take place at Caedmon Hall at Gateshead Central Library. This is just 200m down the road from the Shipley. No further advance tickets are available.
6-10pm
Shipley Lates returns to the Shipley in September with a fantastic evening of after-hours fashion featuring two prominent designers as special guests.
The evening will feature talks by jewellery designer Nora Fok (whose work is currently on display at the Shipley in the exhibition Cloud Nylon: The Jewellery of Nora Fok) and accessories guru Fred Butler who is well known for her work designing for artists such as Patrick Wolf, Beth Ditto and the flamboyant Lady Gaga. Both designers will give special talks about their work and inspiration and share their expertise in special hands on sessions which you can sign up for on the night.
In addition, there will be a special display of 20th century studio jewellery from the Shipley’s collection especially for the evening. You can also try your hand at making your own paper jewellery inspired by designer Dame Wendy Ramshaw.
A DJ will provide a soundtrack to the evening and as usual the Shipley’s pay bar will be available. Pet Lamb Patisserie will also be on hand selling their delectable treats with a range of specially designed fashion cupcakes on offer.
Shipley Lates is supported by IKEA Gateshead.
£3 entry.
No more tickets are available in advance.
