Young Mums art group in Bargate Ward - 18-25s


Celebration! - Do you live in St Mary's or Bargate? Did your child decorate this ball at a local festival? See it displayed at the Central Housing Office and a photo display in St Mary's Surgery.

'St Mary's Coming Together' - a summer of festival fun

Covered in hands decorated by the children of St Mary's and Bargate Ward, this fabulous gold was a 3-part build that started at the K2 Knowledge Youth Festival on 7th July, was added to at St Mary's Community Festival on 14th July, and finished off at the final K2 Festival on 4th August.

Meanwhile the mums' hands were given a french manicure and invited to join our new young mums group that is due to launch in October. The group is still in the planning stages but the idea is possibly to have an arts group for adults that works towards large scale festival builds.

If this is something that would interest you, then get in touch so we can let you know about the first meeting.
