Lockdown Art Celebration

Our Lockdown Art Celebration is now ready to view at the Marlowes Shopping Centre in Hemel Hempstead.

This is a collection of work from various community projects across Hertfordshire, in association with Dacorum Borough Council, as part of Herts Year of Culture 2020.

The exhibition was organised by local artist Anna Schofield of Anna's Funky Art. She wanted to showcase some of the wonderful art projects that have been supporting local people throughout lockdown, highlighting how art can benefit people`s health and wellbeing.

Anna has worked with the South Hill Centre's BBO Strive group and the Three Rivers 'Making it' arts on prescription project throughout lockdown, providing art classes via Zoom.

The exhibition also show cases the ASCEND charity's lockdown blanket which was the idea of local artist Sian Fenwick
To find out more about the project watch their video www.ascend.org.uk/isolation-blanket/

The final project includes positive messages and drawings from pupils at the Hammond Academy Primary school in Hemel Hempstead.

I really hope you can go and have a look at the wonderful art work on display throughout August.
