Event description

Jo Cope and Shelter come together again for London Craft Week 2022 in a truly unique collaboration at Boutique By Shelter, Coal Drops Yard.
The exhibition and retail space celebrates the positive impact Shelter’s advice and support services provide to individuals impacted by our unjust housing system.
Six exceptional hat designers/artists were invited to work with individuals who faced homelessness to understand their story and their future hopes.
The hats in this project will represent a ‘roof over the head’ while exploring the importance of having a home that you can call your own, a place to lay your ‘hat’ and to rest your head.

Designers: Vivienne H. Lake, Sage Townsend, Flora Mclean, Lucy Barlow, Karen Henriksen, Maxwell Shoroye and Vesna Pesic. Project Director: Jo Cope.
