ManneqArt Workshop - An opportunity to create wearable art...


We are pleased to announce a fabulous workshop in the unique ManneqART style. This is a great opportunity for all of our Royal Customers who are intrigued and interested in learning about wearable art. A renowned wearable art professional will lead this workshop, with participation by clothing designer Lee Anderson, as well as our very own Queen Patricia (you can applaud here or curtsy if you must). Your creation may be eligible to compete in the annual ManneqART competition, although that is certainly not required. The Queen as well as several of our customers have participated in the competition, and can provide you additional information about the competition should you decide to enter. Feel free to call the shoppe and ask questions! Below is a copy of the original brochure about this workshop opportunity.
