Barracudas are performing at Workington’s “Paint the Town Red” Festival on Saturday 30th August. Not only are we taking part in the Cavalcade, but also setting up so people can try out stilt walking, costumes and drumming for themselves. Come and visit us outside Laura Ashley.

During November we were joined by Paul McLaren of Shademakers of Bielefeld, Germany, who was in residence creating a costume for an education project organised by Artisancam. Paul worked on a prototype of an angel costume he will be producing for the 2009 Celebrations in Detmold, Germany. So for a month, our workshop and our guest were live online, and viewers could witness the painstaking process of carnival costume creation. At the end of the month, we launched the costume in Barrow-in-Furness, with a performance in the town centre with our carnival band.
