Event Description

Just 12 places are available; the event runs from 10am – 4pm.

A joyful hat-making experience, intended to encourage clown-like expression via costuming.

From a wide range of recycled materials, participants will be guided to create their own unique, wearable headpieces to express authentic aspects of themselves. We will briefly explore some clown performance techniques to help inspire the direction of our hat designs. Participants should bring with them a resonating, lightweight object or objects – perhaps something both meaningful and fun, or possibly just something very beautiful to your eye – which you’d genuinely feel excited about wearing on top of your head in some form. These may, or may not, end up as part of the final creation.

Lexi Strauss is a multi-disciplinary artist, clown, art lecturer and facilitator. Clown Millinery forms a vital part of Lexi’s costuming practice, which includes their Clown Choir hats and Sheshayman’s dazzling Showgirl Shaman headpiece, in addition to many other pieces adorned by comic performers and fashionistas alike.

Lexi last joined us at FEAST in an Earthworm costume at Friday Night Bites in 2021.

Tea and coffee will be available, but please bring food and snacks for lunch.
