How do you make BRA-va Art?
BRA-folio
Our BRA-istas - people who make BRA-va art - have made BRA-va art big and small all around the world in different shapes and different ways! They've walked, run, cycled, skied, kayaked, jet-skied, roller-bladed and cart-wheeled! From a 60km heart as big as Liverpool (UK) to a bra walked in 3 minutes.
