This workshops are part of a series which will take place as part of the Butterfly Bush Workshops with ACAVA studios. The works created will focus on the Spode site including its current developments including the industrialised landscape and effect on the localised eco-system.
The Butterfly Bush Effect project has received support from Stoke High Street Accelerator pilot, which is funded by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG).
