THINK/KNOW WITH COFFEE+SPONGE
INTERACTIVE PERFORMANCE & WORKSHOP FOR ADULTS

FRIDAY & SATURDAY 11.30am – 12.30pm
Coffee+Sponge ask the question; where lies the differences between what you think you know, and what you know you know about somebody? Can you describe what you see and what feel about someone in a drawing? What if you were blindfolded? Take part in this interactive performance and see what you really think. Coffee+Sponge is a cross art form company founded in 2010 by visual artist Samuel Overington and playwright Jennifer Farmer to create immersive, interactive work in collaboration with the public. www.coffeeandsponge.com
