Flying the Flag for Hucknall

‘Flying the Flag for Hucknall’ is part of the Big Draw nationwide initiative to  get everybody together through drawing and creative sessions.
It is open to all ages and it doesn’t matter whether you are a complete novice or could pass on your talents to others.
Individual community groups from schools and youth groups created bunting using waterproof markers and recycled banners. These had been donated by local businesses.
The bunting is being displayed outside their own premises and around Hucknall Market Place and the surrounding areas throughout the half-term holiday (Monday October 22-Friday October 26), creating a highly-visible piece of community art.
I volunteered to be responsible for hanging the bunting around the Market Place.

 
In addition to this, artists will be running free workshops in The Gallery (opposite Market Place) from 10am-4pm every day from Saturday October 20 – Saturday October 27 and a range of different activities for all ages (children and adults) are taking place in the local library.
