Made with Madeley

We were successful in bidding for a Tesco Community Grant in November and delivered a project with the young people at the Madeley Youth Centre on Rosehill Street.

We delivered 4 sessions to create batik Christmas cards and screen printed t-shirts and tote bags. All the artwork was created to sell at 2 local arts and crafts markets in the run up to Christmas.

We had a stall at the Guildhall Arts and Crafts Market and also one at the Mickleover Christmas Fair.
We raised over £120 in sales and the young people and youth leaders helped on the stalls too.

We were very pleased with the workshops, and we know that the youth group enjoyed the experience. We are hoping to work with the group in the new year towards some spring activities.
