Montgomeryshire art group Celf-Able are delighted to be starting a new environmental themed project, ‘DaearGelf/EarthArt’. We will explore how sustainable living can be made possible for all in Montgomeryshire and express our thoughts and feelings on the issues through art. The project launches on Saturday February 5th 2p.m. to 4p.m. at the Centre for Alternative Technology, Machynlleth. The project is funded by Arts Council Wales.
We will be working with Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust, Siawns Teg and artist Jo Munton, and we are very pleased that we will also be working with the Centre for Alternative Technology and Montgomeryshire Youth Theatre.
The first meetings will be a discussion around sustainable living and how the climate crisis and social issues affect us all in our daily lives, and sharing ideas about how we can use our creativity to raise awareness and promote wider discussion. We will then try out different forms of artistic expression from February to June, the venues will be Centre for Alternative Technology, the Focus Enterprise Hub, Newtown, the Community Centre, Guilsfield, the Institute Llanfair Caereinion and the Library Building (RDC), Llanfyllin. Booking is required for all the dates and venues via Eventbrite, search for ‘DaearGelf/EarthArt’. Social distancing will be in place and anyone aged over 11 years will need to wear a mask please, and bring your own mug and teaspoon for hot drinks. The events are free and open to all, those under 16 to be accompanied by a responsible adult please.
