We are SO excited to welcome back to Nucleus Louise Evans and Jonathan Edwards for the All Together Now exhibit. Working together under the name Felt Mistress, the two of them create an impressive family of beautifully crafted felt creatures. Both huge fans of The Beatles, the duo was anxious to get to work on something spectacular for our 50th Anniversary Tribute.
