How Much:
Free!
Ooh cool! A festival for the UK's creative industries at the British Library this March.
Spring Festival sees four days of arts and crafts fun times, with everything from Burmese tattoo designs to anatomical engravings, Victorian hair jewellery and Russian Futurism.
The big names involved include Jamie Hewlett (of Gorillaz fame), Quentin Blake, Emma Bridgewater and Mr Scruff, but even the smallest little event looks pretty wicked.
01-05.03.12.
Please note: entry to the British Library is free, but prices for events vary.
