POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
🎬 FASHION. RESISTANCE. REVOLUTION.

What happens when a catwalk becomes a protest, clothes become a form of resistance, and cinema becomes a space for change?

Join us for ReWear the Revolution!, a FREE film festival bringing fashion, creativity and climate activism to the big screen in Folkestone.

Expect award-winning short films, two film premieres, a guest animation, filmmaker Q&As and a live Subversive Catwalk.

Through film, poetry, upcycled clothing and wearable art, we challenge the environmental and social impact of fast fashion and celebrate the power of creativity to inspire change.

🎬 Sunday 1 November 2026

📍 Silver Screen Cinema, 1–2 Guildhall Street, Folkestone CT20 1DY

⏰ 2–4pm
🎟️ FREE admission

Come ready to question. Come dressed for a revolution.

Of course I didn’t take enough photos but if I was only going to get one, I think this sums up the joy and gentleness of this workshop. Look at these two poppets!

Whatever kind of a witch you are or want to be, whether you are ceremonial, practical, folksy, cosmopolitan or a kitchen witch, I welcome you to come and make a make a simple poppet doll using plastic free, vegan materials.
 
Poppets are dolls made to represent someone in order to cast spells or set intentions, I recommend that you practice witchcraft with consent and only perform magic on yourself and for yourself. eg improve your self-worth and become the person you love spending time with, rather than changing yourself for someone, or changing them for you.
 
You will leave this gentle workshop with a doll, the skills and knowledge to make more and lots of ideas and suggestions of how you can use your doll in your practice.
 
No witchcraft experience required. Basic machine or hand sewing skills essential. If you would like to learn to machine sew before the workshop Janet Robinson @draftstitch is holding an ‘Introduction to the Sewing Machine’ Workshop Monday 28th Sept 10am-12.30pm contact her on 01303 764999.
