If you go down to the shops tomorrow… you’re sure of a big surprise 👀

The Howlers are stretching their legs and heading out onto the high street near our new studio in

Part artwork, part theatre, all joyful chaos. 💥

We’ll be introducing ourselves properly to the neighbourhood — and inviting you to help us shape the next decade of Carnival.

We’re raising funds to secure the studio while we set up (and maybe even get some Velux windows in so the Howlers can enjoy a bit of natural light 🐺✨).

If you’re out with the kids, grabbing coffee, or mooching about the charity shops — come and say hello. 👋🏽
Photos very welcome.
Howls enthusiastically encouraged. ☺️

Sherwood, we can’t wait to meet you. 🤝🫱🏿‍🫲🏾🫱🏽‍🫲🏼

See what you beauties are helping to support. So the white skull head is the first imagineering of my ideas for Dia Del Los Mu***os and the black skull is my latest work, finished last week (in its first draught still got lights bells and whistles to add) and with this new studio that you’re all providing funding for I’m starting to feel really inspired and a lot less terrified and stressed! Thank you everyone for the reposting, mentions and donations. We’re half way to 3 months, but who will push us over £500 today and make Friday the 13th Friyay? 😁 Have a great weekend loving people and the things you love to do with your weekend. Peace, love and beats - Can Samba 🫶🏽🥰✊🏽
