Imagine walking from the exhibition into a workshop where you dream up how to become famous and see your name on a street plaque.

They paint letters, add textures, and play with shapes and sounds as they personalise their mini street sign. The result is a small ‘success panel’ to hang on a wall and a lively collage celebrating their future fame.
