Tooting Works

<h2>Welcome to Carnival on Canvas!</h2>We invite you to attend Zesti Collective's FIRST EVER guided workshop!Come create your own mixed-media artwork that represents the emotions and inspiration that carnival brings whilst DJ Nisha takes us across the world in carnival tunes and Okap A Kaly transports us to Haiti with her delicious savoury treats.This event is FREE! There is an option to make a donation if you wish but this is entirely at your discretion. There will be more ways for you to show your appreciation on the day and after the event that are not monetary. About Zesti CollectiveWe’ve never had more ways to stay busy… yet so many of us feel lonely, burnt out or like we’re trying to reconnect with something bigger.That's why I (Stella), decided to create Zesti Collective - a social enterprise dedicated to improving access to self-discovery by encouraging engagement in culturally rooted craft and movement at little to no cost.Whether you're successful on paper, but feel like you don't know who you are outside of work, or you've been let down and left behind by the systems that are supposed to protect us, Zesti invites you to slow down, be nurtured and make things with your hands.No expectations, just your presence is enough, always! About RepYourFlagsRepYourFlags started at Notting Hill Carnival. Our founder showed up the way she always wanted to, repping Ghana and Jamaica in the same breath, wearing flags she'd made by hand for herself and her family. Strangers stopped her in the crowd. Asked where she got them. Asked if they could have one.That moment said everything. This wasn't just for her.RepYourFlags launched on social media in 2023 and grew to nearly 7,000 TikTok followers through community and word of mouth alone, proof that people had been waiting for something like this without even knowing it.
