In preparation for Portsmouth's annual carnival in August, which this year has the theme of 'Day of the Dead', I volunteered at Portsmouth Youth Centre to host a mask making workshop for the carnival performers / walkers to wear. Despite getting acrylic paint on my favourite jeans (remember your aprons folks!), I had a lot of fun helping the children create their own designs, and even made my own once they had left! This would be a good project for anyone with children to do at home, all you need is a plain mask, paint, glitter, glue and any other cheap crafty bits you desire such as gems and feathers.
