Urgent!!! Just 9 DAYS left to donate to @iklectikartlab fundraiser! crowdfunder.co.uk/p/iklectik… These are a few of our many memories from Iklectik, one of our all-time favourite venues. It’s impossible to exaggerate how important Iklectik has become to the arts scene here in the UK

They have certainly helped keep Distractfold going (most notably as we came out of the pandemic) by providing us with space, skills, equipment and moral support when we’ve needed it most!
