Designed by local Merseyside artist Rosa Kusabbi, these environmentally friendly bags are both useful and fun as they are an activity themselves.
The bags can be purchased with a set of fabric markers, sourced from an eco-friendly supplier, which can be used to add colour detail to Rosa’s design. Children can decorate them as gifts or personalise their own bags, and adults can use them as a creative or mindfulness activity to promote their own wellbeing.
The money raised will provide spaces for low-income families to access Wirral Unplugged’s services for free. Wirral Unplugged mission is to inspire families to connect, communicate and be creative, all while spending time away from screens and being environmentally conscious.
Rosa Kusabbi is a printmaker and animator whose stylish contemporary illustrations focuses on important social issues and female empowerment. She also takes inspiration from vintage music and protest posters. Rosa’s design for Wirral Unplugged incorporates families’ favourite #FairyTrollPost weeks, from Mexico to spiders, flying to rainforests.
