THE LAST SUMMER SESSION!

Re-Shape - Creating Environmental Art

Wednesday the 17th of August, from 7pm till 9pm, will be the last chance to get involved in one of the Re:Store Summer Sessions!

In this workshop participants will be able to get stuck in making environmental art!

The aim of the session will be to make weird and wonderful artwork that will be put into an exhibition, raising awareness about the amount of un-recyclable materials that are put into landfill.

You dont need to be a skilled or professional artist, just up for a laugh and getting creative.

At the same time we will be listening to funky tunes and discussing what we can do about these issues in our communities,

It costs £2 to get involved on the night, which goes on materials for making the piece - though the elements of the artwork are all made from things you would usually put in the bin.

This last session needs your help to be a success, so collect your rubbish and drop in to the Continental on South Meadow Lane on the 17th of August, and help make a difference.

For more info please contact Bob Walley - Environmental Artist working with They Eat Culture at bobVwalley@gmail.com

This session saw the beginning of artwork being made from un-recyclable materials.

The piece is a landscape view of Preston including all the landmarks, the football stadium, the docks and the city centre skyline.
Its taking shape! But we definitely need help for the final Re:Store session on wednesday the 17th of August from 7 till 9.30pm finishing it so its ready to be exhibited.

Spread the good word!

Get collecting and come and Re-Make!
