Play For Elham worked with local artist Annie Begley to run a
series of free pottery workshops each weekend in August, bringing
together the youth and elderly generations in a joint project.
We received funding from Shepway Arts and offered at least two 2 1/2 hr workshops to each participant so
that they could create and glaze their work.
The project aimed to encourage looking at our natural
environment for inspiration to create three dimensional work. The garden was used to gather ideas and look at the structure of natural forms
and the final sculpture was designed to be placed in the garden.
An
exhibition of the finished work will be on show in Elham and with the
help of Shepway Arts, in Folkestone, in an outdoor setting.
