About
Perler beads are colourful plastic beads that fuse together when heat is applied, allowing you to create fun and diverse art!
Inspired by the Perler beads that artist Catherine Blackburn uses in her 'New Age Warriors' exhibition, on show at The Reach from September 23rd 2022 - January 7th 2023, we'll be celebrating culture days at The Reach with a drop-in Perler bead craft.
Join us between 1pm and 4pm on Saturday October 1st to make your own Perler bead craft: we'll supply all the materials needed (even the iron to melt your beads into place!).
Note: materials are limited to a first-come, first-serve basis
