‘Appearance’ Community Art Event
A free interactive community art installation organised by local artist Catherine Lomas for all ages offering a chance to express yourself, and come together as a community to share this space, this opportunity, this moment in time.
An invitation to write or draw whatever is in your heart onto the sculpture pieces. Maybe a hope or wish or something you want to express your thanks for. It could be a fear or a worry. It could relate to the world situation, your family or local neighbourhood, or yourself. You might call it a prayer but it doesn't have to be. It might be something you wish to manifest to the Universe.
