We worked with families in half term to create Chinese New Year crafts. As it was Year of the Horse, we made clay horses and horse puppets using cardboard and gold dollies. We had a lovely lunch prepared by Jo in Loudon Lodge.
The project was kindly funded by Warburtons Funding and Food vouchers from the Coop.
We delivered a series of workshops to create 2 giant puppets and many mini puppets of inspiring women and girls for the procession through Derby City Centre for International Women's Day on 9 March.
We ran workshops at Grove Lodge in the Derby Arboretum, at the Insomnia Cafe in the Coop Store in Derby and during our Nature Spaces workshops. It was a huge feat to get it all finished. But well worth it.

We were asked to deliver 4 weeks of art activities with children attending the Lightzone Holiday Club at Boulton Lane Community Centre in Allenton.
It was a full on summer, we chose 4 artists to focus on with a summertime theme. Keith Haring, Yayoi Kusama, Henri Matisse and Calvin Siebert.
Here is what we got up to.
