miss_squiddyWe've started planning our summer events at work already (arragh!) and this year our "big" summer extravaganza is 1950s themed, which is potentailly quite exciting.
I thought it would be worth an ask whether anyone is (or knows) anyone who might fit one of the following descriptions:
1. A family friendly artist, performer or demonstrator with fifties skills such as singing, dancing, hairdressing (fashion is a big theme for the exhibition) or a big shiny vehicle who is CRB checked and has public liability up to £5m who could do a paid performance/demonstration/talk.
2. A lovely 1950s obsessed nutter who would be willing to spend a Saturday being enthusiastic about whatever part of the decade they are obsessed by and showing off their car/toys/kitchenware collection/aircraft/fabulous dress sense/dance moves to the general public in return for travel expenses (and hopefully some lunch).
The event will take place in Stafford on Saturday 25th July, 10am till 4pm.
I'm organising this so I'm open to suggestion - the only stipulations are that everything has to be suitable for a family audience or participation (so no chance of any burlesque workshops - boo!). I think we already have the local Ceroc group, possibly some nice shiny motorbikes and a couple of people making things!
Public post with screened comments, so please feel free to pass this info on to anyone who you think might be interested in taking part - or just leave your e-mail address or phone number with a link to your website and a description of whatever it is that you do/have!
