Vincent and the Mermaid: Creatures from Under the Sea
Michael West Gallery
Imagine you are organising a party but your cakes keep floating away. Tabitha mermaid is
facing such a challenge - plus none of the guests will turn up!
Following on from the performance Vincent and the Mermaid by Horse Box Theatre, join creative mastermind Teresa to make your own junk sea creatures. The book is written by Isle of Wight author Jules Marriner; you can buy a copy of the book at the bookshop in the cafe, and get it signed by Jules with a special message to the reader. This workshop is being run on behalf of Jules by Teresa Grimaldi.
Author and illustrator of 15+ books, Jules is well known on the Isle of Wight for her
eccentric stories with daft characters.
Shortlisted for the IW Book Awards 2022, Jules spends much of her time rescuing
animals and baking, although the first does not necessarily facilitate the second.
​
No need for a ticket! It's a FREE drop-in.
