Last year, the artist Lowri Mai created a character and unofficial mascot for the spooky Halloween fun at Bangor Library and Storiel called ‘Peni Pwmpen’. Peni has been a prominent character at Bangor Library throughout the Halloween season, with the aim of embracing spookiness and inspiring people to embrace it with her. She also came over to celebrate with Storiel and had generated a lot of interest. This year, the idea is to give the young and young at heart a chance to create their own spooky characters. Peni is also a character meant to create a sense of comfort for kids and adults who feel a little different, the ‘spooky kids’ if you like. This workshop will be a chance to introduce Peni Pwmpen, with art created alongside a short Peni Pwmpen story to help the children get to know her, and the children will be able to take a copy home with them. In collaboration with MSparc, 3D models of Peni will be printed so the children can paint them as they imagine for the next step.
