Winged Beast Outfitters is coming out this Sunday to be part of the Ravenswing D-I-Y Fair.
It's outdoors, in a park... and hopefully weather permitting an AWESOME DAY for seeing the new shirts and fashion stylings I'm rolling out. Including a new powerful print! And what? CARDIGANS! Not to mention the return of an old favourite! Also, other great artists and makers will be there!
Detials about the event are:
Ottawa's Do-It-Yourself Fair is back and better than ever!
Ravenswing brings you a spectacular + affordable craft and zine fair, skill-sharing workshops (brought to you by the Les Ateliers gals) and lovely music from local bands and artists.
Ravenswing D-I-Y Fair is proudly held in collaboration with The Clothesline Project, a feminist initiative that combats violence against women and children and promotes healing through public art.
