Family Art Club - Easter Holidays

We delivered 4 days of art activities in Grove Lodge over the Easter Holidays. We had received funding from the Derby City Council Cohesion Grant to work with the community.

We created art from cardboard tubes and paper mache artworks too. It was a fun time!

Summertime Sculpture


We spent 6 weeks over the summer holidays creating a fabulous sculpture to decorate the Orangery in the Derby Arboretum. 

We had a brilliant team of Spiral Artists leading and supporting the sessions over the weeks, we made butterflies, birds, ladybirds, dragonflies, flowers and woven branches. The finished artwork looked wonderful, everyone had a great time.

May Fest event in Derby Arboretum

We had such a lovely sunny day for our May Fest celebrations on Derby Arboretum. Spiral Arts decorated the Orangery building with all the artwork created over the 3 zoom sessions and also with lots of hot air balloons from last year's Lark Event. Thank you to Rosehill Infants School for painting the lovely cardboard flowers which we displayed on the veranda of Loudon Lodge

RHS Chatsworth - Well Dressing

We spent a busy 5 days working at RHS Chatsworth delivering 'Have a Go' workshops at the show for visitors. The theme of the show was 'Wellbeing' and 'the 5 senses', so we created a mandala design and used traditional well dressing materials as well as cumin, coriander and cardoman seeds which gave a lovely aroma.
