Be Bold – Be GOLD
Rescaling Contemporary Crafts
Tuesday 22 – Thursday 24 September
Art Studio, Sackler Centre
(The Sackler Centre is the V&A's centre for public learning through creative design and the arts)
11.00–15.00
Bring along your own object to be gold-leafed by students from the Royal College of Art’s Goldsmithing, Metalwork and Jewellery Department. See how they challenge popular perceptions of craft as the poor relation of design and demonstrate their different approaches to creating innovative and unusual objects. Explore the results in a special display and talk informally with them about their work and the design process.

p.s. I wish I wasn't at the office! Otherwise some of my toys would have had a lovely 'gold' look. Damn shame!!
