Late Night Art at The Crescent
Late Night Art
Our current Late Night Art series has been curated by artist Amy Ortiz! Amy is working with talented Befast-based artists to bring you a series of creative hands-on activities.
Art director and book designer Anna Morrison joins us for May's edition of Late Night Art to launch her new exhibition, Art of Translation, in The Crescent Café and to celebrate all things book design. Read more about the exhibition here.
Bring along your favourite read, a classic, or pick a title from our free Little Library - then have a go at drawing up your own DIY book cover, we'll have templates and materials ready to go.
Anna will be on hand throughout the evening to share tips on layout, illustration, and visual storytelling - plus insights into her creative process as a book designer. 📖
No experience or booking needed - this is a free event with all materials and refreshments provided. As always, no experience or booking required - but get down early to grab a spot! Come along and simply bring yourself, maybe a friend and pop in for a relaxed creative session.
