As part
of the worldwide community art project,
THE BIG DRAW, community groups in Hucknall had united under the banner ‘Flying
the Flag for Hucknall.’ The climax of
the scheme took place during the October school half-term week where free art
and craft activities took place. I
offered to go on a rota to help at one of the venues and not being an ‘art
type’ myself was amazed at the creativity the artists from Rufford Craft Centre
exhibited in engaging all to be involved.
The day
I was involved, the main focus was on using different types of techniques and
materials to create prints. It was good
fun and amazing to see how an individual’s imagination was unlocked and
contributed to community art. If art
lessons, had been this interactive when I was at school, I might have developed
a greater interest!
