PARTICIPATE:
The Vincent Vanpalooza
A Dadaist Flower Couture Workshop
The Vincent Vanpalooza is a vibrant, community art event led by artist Sol Golden Sato, inviting 15–20 children and their parents to co-create wearable floral couture inspired by Vincent van Gogh’s lesser-known flower paintings and everyday still life objects. Through a Dadaist workshop, participants will design and construct surreal, cardboard-based hybrid costumes. The workshop culminates in a joyful street parade around the Van Gogh House in Stockwell, London, transforming the neighbourhood into a living, blooming artwork and eventually joining up with the Mythical Creature workshop in Van Gogh Walk.
This event is suitable for children aged 6-12. All children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Booking essential.
Sunday 28 September 10am–12.30pm
Van Gogh House, 87 Hackford Road, London SW9 0RE
