Over the Summer

Over the Summer the Art Lids Society was created in the Leaf Cafe on Bold street.

We have recently been involved in the Bold Street Festival on Saturday 24th September which was a huge success. We did a variety of live art workshops such as portraits, painting, installation and sculpture.

I did the sculpture workshop which was bombarded by children, I gave up serious sculpture making and said "make what you like, elephants seem to be popular."

It was great promoting ourselves as community artists being hands on with events, we even gathered enough donations to pay for the materials we bought for the event and spare cash to put towards a student led outing to whichever exhibition gets the most interest around England.

There is a Council led event happening in November as well and we have been invited to take over floor space in Clayton Square for the 'Alice in Wonderland' themed event. I'd like to incorporate this into my work.
