Art & Creative Writing are now on Zoom
Each Monday ‘Craft Minds’ will be taking over our Social Cafes!
Our Art and Creative Writing Groups are now meeting every Monday at 1 pm on Zoom for half an hour. The group is facilitated by Myra (our art volunteer) and Alice our Wellbeing Coordinator is also online in the group to offer support.
We will be watching YouTube clips featuring exciting arts from a variety of artists.
There’ll be an opportunity to share your drawings, paintings, sculptures and creative writing that you may have done while you have been at home.
This group is informal, therefore no art lessons but we hope you will like to share hints, tips and hacks to help each other feel inspired!
There is no pressure to share your work, feel free to join us if you would just like to watch and listen. You can join on mute or without video if you wish.
We want art to be fun for all, and your input and ideas for the weekly sessions will be encouraged and included.
There’s no limit for attendance and we always welcome new members so please come and join us!
Take a look at the Art Gallery
We create a gallery each month of the wonderful creations that are sent into us from residents and group members, take a look here:
