illustrate our posters...
POSTERS:
The first of our invited illustrators has done his magic and we're very pleased with our May poster. Our craft market season kicks of at the end of May and the posters are being printed as I type. They are super cool and you can get a sneak preview on the top left of this page. Thank you Alex!!!
If you'd like the chance to illustrate one of our posters then please contact us via email: craftguerrilla@yahoo.com
We have three more dates and we'd love to get guest illustrators involved.
Because we are a self funded collective we can't pay you but we'll love you forever, post a link on our blog and web site which has a steady stream of web traffic and followers. Also we'll be happy to plug you in our Zine which we sell through our web shop,at our events and will be catalogued in the British Library.
Craft Guerrilla ZINE: As mentioned before our tri monthly zine has been catalogued in the British Library and has been guest edited by Craft Guerrilla members. A few generous and talented illustrators have also sent in work and we love how it looks!So that brings us to the next subject...
If you'd like to design our Zine then please get in touch. Again it will be unpaid but we'll credit you fully and link you up. It's a great chance to get creative and design something how you'd like it! We'd give you free reign and apart from content we'd let you design and illustrate our little publication.
E mail Deborah for more info and details: craftguerrilla@yahoo.com

illustrators brief...
Once again our calls for assistance for illustrators have been fruitful. I told you before...they are a very generous,kind,talented bunch of people! So after our very successful 3rd issue of the Craft Guerrilla Craft Zine we decided that we'd like to share the platform once again and help out our illustrating friends to reach another audience...also it's pretty handy for us because we get gorgeous art work for our Zine! It's a win win situation!!!
The brief:
POSTER- A Xmas Craft Market, on Sunday 6th of December at the William Morris Gallery, Walthamstow. It will be a Craft market with stalls, a craft corner and a Choir (though we're waiting on confirmation on this so maybe have it on a separate layer which we can alter if needed).
We need something which illustrates the spirit of the Arts & Crafts movement,the brotherhood, modern craft,community,the holiday season and some how incorporate William Morris work...maybe a homage to his lovely prints?
Zine- it's our 4th issue! As it's tri monthly it will have to be quite varied and not just Christmasy! Also it's back to the usual low tech format of Black and White!
We'd need a cover...winter scene (with the prospect of Spring would be nice), craft,homeliness,nesting,hibernation etc. We also need images to illustrate a few articles on - Fashion,baking and craft (d.i.y. craft, making and mending ethos).
It's pretty free but I need a loose following of the brief.Remember it doesn't have to be all cute and fluffy...we like dark humour and want something pretty modern and vibrant though I am also a BIG fan of cute so don't hold back!
As a thank you you will receive a link on the Zine,our web site and blog plus we'll be happy to help you any way we can.
That's it my lovelies! Send your jpegs (300 dpi) to our e mail address: craftguerrilla@yahoo.com
Big craft hugs to you all!!!

illustrators needed!!!
We're super excited about hosting our E17 Art Trail event in September! Last year was really great fun. It was the push we needed to start our D.I.Y. craft nights. As well as the Art Trail being a great inspiration for people like us it's also a great opportunity to publicise your work and collaborate with others.
It's not only an event for locals because we've had visitors from all over the UK and abroad.Now in it's 5th year it's caused quite a lot of attention.There have been other Trails popping up around the capital and the UK.It's always such fun to participate in the Trail. As this years guest editor writing the introduction showed me just how diverse and plentiful the borough has become. The amount of original events and art work is absolutely awesome! It's a true hot bed of ideas!
Our "Craftea party" is a celebration of two great British institutes...Craft and Tea! We'll be hosting a tea party in the Vestry House Museum and visitors will be able to relax and make some CRAFT while enjoying a cup of tea and a slice of cake.
To coincide with the event our tri-monthly Craft-Zine will be on sale during the whole of trail in the E17 Art Trail pop up book shop and in several retail outlets in the area.
This special edition will be a super duper homage to all things TEA related and of course CRAFT. We're basically on the look out for any illustrator that would like to do the cover for us. Unfortunately it's unpaid work but we'll feature you in the Craft Zine plus include your contact details. Let me know if you are interested and I'll send you a design brief. e mail Deborah at: craftguerrilla@yahoo.com
Please note that before we except you we need to see examples of your art work.
