We did it! Feed&Read’s first pop-up was on Sunday 16th December 2012 at Bearspace Gallery in Deptford. We laid out the seasonal cakes. Displayed our upcycled homemade crafts. And set up the book swap-and-shop. People came! Everyone bought tea and award-winning cake. And ate it all up. They swapped pre-loved books. And shared their thoughts … Continue reading
