World Artists for World Kindness Day:
With artist Amanda Whewell, we had activities inspired by a different artist each week, for seven weeks. Participants received a hand delivered Art Bag of activity sheets, sketch book and all the materials needed for the project. The colourful sheets had artwork and information about the artist, with two activities inspired by their work – and a third offered for those who were keen, and wanted to do more. Amanda also made a short film to demonstrate each week’s workshop for those who have internet – and still available of course, to anyone outside the project who would like to get creative for a few hours. At the end of the project, we chose artwork from each sketchbook to print onto coasters/(cardboard beermat style) for us to give away on World Kindness Day ( Friday 13th November).
The 500 sets of 12 coasters are being given to participants to give to friends and family, to HPCA ‘Friends’ and to local foodbanks and voluntary groups to give to families in the High Peak.
