During the summer Poppy Foyle, Ami Freed, Pippa Hunt and Becky Mann delivered a series of childrens' workshops in Waterstones. The theme was 'Pirates' with each child making and colouring the essential equipment and accessories so as to be eligible for 'Pirates Day' on Hastings Beach. This was a massive and successful operation to get as many pirates together at the same time; the world record was broken and these four FdA Illustration made their contribution to this achievement.
A huge effort went into developing the concept and preparing materials as well as just being well resourced and organized on the day. It gave all involved an insight into producing illustration for young children, marketing the events and delivering the workshop to children of various ages.
